[Lockhart Logo]
                               ------------------
     Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation is offering Units on a best efforts basis.
No Units  will be sold  until  subscriptions  for at least  1,153,846  Units are
received (the "Minimum Offering").  Lockhart may sell up to 2,000,000 Units (the
"Maximum Offering") in this offering. The minimum purchase is 100 Units, and the
initial  public  offering  price is $6.50 per Unit.  For factors  considered  in
determining the initial public offering price,  see "{{Plan of  Distribution}}".
Each Unit consists of one share of Class A Common Stock and one Warrant.  Shares
of Class A Common  Stock and the Warrants may be  transferred  separately  after
their issuance. Each Warrant is exercisable for a period of five years beginning
one year from the date of this  Prospectus  and  entitles the holder to purchase
one-tenth  of one  share  of  Class A Common  Stock  for  $9.75  per  share.  No
fractional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued.

     Lockhart is a {{U.S. Virgin Islands}}  corporation engaged primarily in the
business of owning,  acquiring,  renovating,  developing  and managing  shopping
centers and other commercial real estate in the Virgin Islands and is taking the
first  step  in  diversifying  its  real  estate  activities  with  the  pending
acquisition of an insurance premium financing company.

     Lockhart has two classes of common stock,  Class A Common Stock and Class B
Common  Stock.  Each share of Class A Common  Stock  entitles  its holder to one
vote,  whereas  each share of Class B Common  Stock  entitles  its holder to ten
votes.  If  the  Maximum  Offering  is  sold,  the  Class  B  Stockholders  will
beneficially  own shares having  approximately  97.7% of the outstanding  voting
power of the  Common  Stock.  As a  result,  these  stockholders  will  have the
collective ability to elect the Company's directors and to determine the outcome
of  corporate  actions  requiring  stockholder  approval.  Lockhart's  executive
officers  and  directors  will  beneficially  own shares of Class B Common Stock
having approximately 42.6% of the outstanding voting power of the Common Stock.
 
     See "{{Risk  Factors}}"  beginning  on page 12 for certain  material  risks
relevant to an investment in the Units, including:
o   Historical consolidated net losses.
o   Concentration of properties in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
o   No limit on indebtedness in Lockhart organizational documents.
o   Real estate  investment and property  management  risks, such as the need to
    renew leases or relet space upon lease expiration.
o   Certain losses may exceed insurance coverage.
o   There is currently no public market for the Class A Common Stock.

                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

     The Lockhart  Companies  Incorporated  was  reorganized in 1993, and it was
recapitalized  and renamed  Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation in August 1997. The
following summary is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed  information
and the  consolidated  financial  statements  and the  notes  thereto  appearing
elsewhere in this Prospectus.

                                   The Company

     Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation  (together  with its direct  and  indirect
subsidiaries,  "Lockhart"  or the  "Company")  is the largest  owner of shopping
centers  in the  U.S.  Virgin  Islands  and is one  of  the  largest  owners  of
undeveloped land on the island of St. Thomas. Lockhart owns, acquires, operates,
renovates,  develops,  and manages  shopping  centers and other  commercial real
estate,  primarily  on the  islands of St.  Thomas and St.  Croix.  The  Company
currently owns and operates seven shopping  centers and is actively  planning or
developing  {{seven  projects}}.  Lockhart  also owns and operates  {{commercial
parks}} in which it builds the infrastructure for commercial  development (roads
and utilities) and leases  designated  parcels under long-term ground leases. In
addition,  the  Company  owns an  aggregate  of  approximately  {{415  acres  of
undeveloped   real  estate}}  zoned  for  residential   development  of  varying
densities.

     Capitalizing  on  the  collective  experience  of  the  {{Company's  senior
management}} in the financial services  industry,  Lockhart intends to diversify
its  operations  to provide  select  financial  services.  As a first step,  the
Company is acquiring {{Premium Finance Company of the V.I., Inc.}} ("PFC").  PFC
finances  insurance  premiums for  individuals and businesses in the U.S. Virgin
Islands, the British Virgin Islands,  Antigua, Anguilla and Barbuda and recently
received government approval to do business in St. Maarten.  Lockhart has agreed
to acquire PFC for  $687,500  and will use a portion of the  proceeds  from this
offering to pay the PFC purchase price. See "{{Use of Proceeds}}".

     The Company is a U.S. Virgin Islands  corporation.  Its principal executive
offices are located at No. 44 Estate  Thomas,  St. Thomas,  U.S.  Virgin Islands
00802, and its telephone number is (340) 776- 1900.

                                  Risk Factors

o    The  Company  has experienced  consolidated  net losses for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1997  as well as in  three out of the  past five fiscal
     years, and there can be no assurance that profitability will be achieved in
     the future.

o    All of the Company's  properties are currently  located in the U.S.  Virgin
     Islands  and,  therefore,  the  Company's  performance  will  depend on the
     economic conditions in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

o    The Company's  organizational documents do not limit the amount of debt the
     Company can incur,  and the Company  intends to raise  additional  funds to
     finance its growth;  however,  the Lockhart Board of Directors has a policy
     of  incurring  debt only when a project is expected  to generate  cash flow
     sufficient to service the related debt.

o    Lockhart is subject to real estate investment and property management risks
     such as: (i) the need to renew leases or relet space upon lease expirations
     and,  at  times,  to pay  renovation  and  reletting  costs  in  connection
     therewith;  (ii) the effect of economic  and other  conditions  on property
     cash flows and values; (iii) the ability of tenants to make lease payments;
     (iv) the  ability of a property  to  generate  revenue  sufficient  to meet
     operating

                                        5

<PAGE>

     expenses,  including  future debt service;  and (v) the illiquidity of real
     estate investments, all of which may adversely affect the Company's results
     of operations.

o    Lockhart  intends to continue to acquire,  renovate and develop real estate
     properties  and  will  be  subject  to  the  risks   associated  with  such
     activities.

o    Certain types of losses,  such as those  resulting from  hurricanes,  could
     exceed the Company's  insurance  coverage,  which currently includes flood,
     windstorm  and  earthquake  coverage  for  all of the  Company's  operating
     properties.

o    The Company may incur  environmental  liabilities  in  connection  with the
     ownership or operation of its properties.

o    Shares  available for future sale may adversely  affect the market price of
     the Class A Common Stock.

o    The Class A Common  Stock is  currently  not  listed or traded on any stock
     exchange or other  quotation  system,  and there can be no assurance that a
     trading market will develop.

o    Purchasers in this offering will experience  immediate  dilution in the net
     tangible  book  value  per  share of the  shares  of  Class A Common  Stock
     purchased in this offering.

                                   Properties

     The Company  currently  owns and operates  seven  shopping  centers and one
commercial park, is actively  planning or developing seven projects,  has leased
an aggregate of  approximately  seven acres  (including  tenants at Sugar Estate
Park) of commercial  land to others on the basis of long-term  ground leases and
owns   approximately  415  acres  of  undeveloped  land  zoned  for  residential
development.  The Company  also owns No. 44 Estate  Thomas,  an office  building
which  the  Company  currently  uses as its  principal  executive  offices.  The
following  table  sets  forth  certain  information  for  each of the  Company's

     The  commercial  business  park,  {{Sugar  Estate  Park}},  consists  of an
aggregate of approximately 11.7 acres of land.  Approximately 5.7 acres of Sugar
Estate Park are  currently  ground  leased to  commercial  tenants.  The Company
collects lease payments and other tenant expense reimbursements under its ground
leases and will own the buildings constructed on the property upon expiration of
the leases.  Lockhart also has two  development  projects  planned for the Park,
Sugar Estate  Commercial  Centre and Sugar Estate Plaza,  which the Company will
operate and manage once these projects are completed.

     The following table sets forth certain  information  for projects  actively

                         Business and Growth Strategies


     The Company's primary business  objectives are to enhance stockholder value
by  maximizing  cash flow,  and to diversify  both  geographically  and into the
financial  services  industry.   The  Company  believes  it  can  achieve  these
objectives by  continuing to implement its business  strategies to capitalize on
external growth opportunities and to promote internal growth.


     The Company's  primary business  strategies are to: (i) actively manage its
developed  real  property  portfolio  to improve  cash flow;  (ii)  complete its
planned  projects and develop its land  holdings for their highest and best use;
(iii) selectively  execute real property  acquisitions in strategic  submarkets;
and (iv) diversify into the financial services industry.


     Lockhart  intends to grow  externally  by  acquiring  additional  developed
commercial properties in the U.S. Virgin Islands and in other Caribbean markets,
and  by  capitalizing  on  management's  experience  in the  financial  services
industry  through  diversification  into  that  industry.  The  Company  pursues
internal  growth by: (i)  maintaining  and  improving  occupancy  rates  through
proactive tenant  management and aggressive  leasing;  (ii)  implementing  fixed
contractual  base rent  increases or increases  tied to indices;  (iii)  passing
through to tenants  certain  reimbursable  expense items;  (iv)  capitalizing on
economies of scale  arising from the size of the  Company's  operating  property

                                   Ownership

     Lockhart is one of the oldest continuous operators of commercial properties
in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands.  The Company was founded by Alfred H.  Lockhart in
1884, and was originally  incorporated by his son, Herbert E. Lockhart, in 1936.
Immediately  after the offering and assuming the Maximum  Offering is sold,  the
approximately  34 holders of Class B Common  Stock  (collectively,  the "Class B
Stockholders")  will  beneficially  own  shares of Class B Common  Stock  having
approximately  97.7% of the  outstanding  voting power of the  Company's  Common
Stock. Class B Stockholders consist of lineal descendants (and their spouses) of
Alfred H.  Lockhart  and his son  Herbert E.  Lockhart,  as well as the  current
executive  officers and a former  employee of the  Company.  If only the Minimum
Offering is sold,  Class B  Stockholders  will have  approximately  98.7% of the
outstanding  voting power of the Company's  Common Stock.  Lockhart's  executive
officers and directors will collectively own or control approximately  3,739,931
shares  of  Class B  Common  Stock,  or  approximately  42.6%  and  42.7% of the
outstanding  voting power of Common Stock based on the Maximum  Offering and the
Minimum Offering,  respectively.  See "Risk  Factors--Concentration  of Control;
Anti-Takeover  Effect of  Certain  Charter  Provisions"  and  "{{Description  of
Capital Stock}}".


                                  The Offering


     The Company is offering Units,  each consisting of one share of its Class A
Common  Stock,  par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Common  Stock"),  and one
Warrant.  Shares of Class A Common  Stock and the  Warrants  may be  transferred
separately  after their  issuance.  Each Warrant is exercisable  for a period of
five years  beginning one year from the date of this Prospectus and entitles the
holder to purchase  one-tenth of one share of Class A Common Stock for $9.75 per
share.  The exercise  price and the number of the shares of Class A Common Stock
issuable  upon  exercise  of the  Warrants  is  subject to  adjustment  upon the
occurrence of certain events.  No fractional shares of Class A common Stock will
be issued. See "Description of Warrants".

Distributions.......... Initially, no cash distributions will be paid to holders
                        of Class A Common Stock; however, the Board of Directors
                        of the  Company  has a policy of  declaring  annual cash
                        distributions  to holders of Class B Common  Stock.  See
                        "Distribution Policy". As long as cash distributions are
                        not being paid on Class A Common  Stock,  the holders of
                        Class A Common  Stock shall be entitled to  preferential
                        rights  in the  event  of  liquidation,  dissolution  or
                        winding   up  of  the   Company,   and  the   amount  of
                        distributions payable to holders of Class B Common Stock
                        is limited. See "{{Description of Capital Stock}}".

Use of proceeds........ The  Company  intends to use the net  proceeds  from the
                        Minimum  Offering to pay the purchase  price for PFC, to
                        repay certain outstanding  indebtedness and to partially
                        fund its development  projects.  If the Maximum Offering
                        is sold,  approximately $525,000 of the last one million
                        dollars  of  additional  net  proceeds  will  be used to
                        redeem  shares  from  certain of the  Company's  current
                        stockholders  and the  balance  will be used  for  other
                        general corporate purposes. See "Use of Proceeds".

- ---------------
(1)  Shares of Class B Common  Stock are  convertible  at any time into  Class A
     Common Stock on a one-for-one basis and convert  automatically into Class A
     Common Stock upon a transfer to anyone other than a Class B Stockholder  or
     certain permitted transferees. See "{{Description of Capital Stock}}".


(2)  If the Minimum  Offering is sold, the Company  intends to apply for listing
     of the Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.  However,  there
     can be no  assurance  that the Company  will be accepted  for listing if it
     applies.  See "{{Plan of Distribution}}".  The  Company  does not intend to
     apply for listing of the Warrants.

(3)  If the Maximum  Offering is sold,  the Company  intends to use a portion of
     the  last  one  million  dollars  realized  from  the  sale  to  repurchase
     approximately  80,769  shares of Class B Common Stock from certain  Class B
     Stockholders.  See  "Use of  Proceeds"  and  "{{Certain  Relationships  and
     Related Transactions}}".

     2010, respectively.

(5)  The Company  adopted  SFAS 109  (Accounting  for Income  Taxes) in 1993 and
     included the cumulative effect of adopting the new accounting  principle in
     1993 operations.

(6)  The  commercial  real estate and  undeveloped  real  estate  carried on the
     financial records of the Company are at book value of historical cost basis
     or below-cost  and do not reflect market values as established on either an
     income valuation or replacement value basis.


(7)  EBITDA  means income  before  mortgage and other  interest,  income  taxes,
     depreciation  and  amortization.  EBITDA is not intended to represent  cash
     flows from  operations  and should not be considered as an  alternative  to
     operating  income or net income (as determined in accordance  with GAAP) as
     an indicator of the Company's  operating  performance or to cash flows from
     operating  activities (as determined in accordance  with GAAP) as a measure
     of liquidity or to other  consolidated  income or cash flow  statement data
     (as determined in accordance with GAAP).  The Company  believes that EBITDA
     is an appropriate  measure of performance  because it is predicated on cash
     flow analyses.  The Company's  definition of EBITDA may not be identical to
     similarly  titled  measures  of other  companies  and,  therefore,  may not
     necessarily be an accurate basis of comparison.

(8)  Funds  from  operations  means net  income  (loss)  plus  depreciation  and
     amortization. Funds from operations is not intended to represent cash flows
     from operations and should not be considered as an alternative to operating
     income  or net  income  (as  determined  in  accordance  with  GAAP)  as an
     indicator  of the  Company's  operating  performance  or to cash flows from
     operating  activities (as determined in accordance  with GAAP) as a measure
     of liquidity or to other  consolidated  income or cash flow  statement data
     (as determined in accordance  with GAAP).  The Company  believes that funds
     from operations is a standard measure commonly  reported and widely used by
     analysts,  investors  and  other  interested  parties  in the  real  estate
     industry. Accordingly, this information has been disclosed herein to permit
     a more complete comparative analysis of the Company's  performance relative
     to other companies in the industry.  The Company's definition of funds from
     operations  may not be  identical  to  similarly  titled  measures of other
     companies  and,  therefore,  may not  necessarily  be an accurate  basis of
     comparison.

History of Losses; Uncertainty of Profitability


     The Company  reported  consolidated net losses for the years ended December
31, 1996, 1994 and 1993 of $833,000, $51,000 and $97,000,  respectively, and for
the nine months  ended  September  30, 1997 of  $940,772.  Although  the Company
operated profitably for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1992, there can be
no assurance that  profitability on a quarterly or annual basis will be achieved
in  the  future.  See  "{{Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.}}"


Concentration of Properties in the U.S. Virgin Islands

     Currently,  all of the Company's  properties are located in the U.S. Virgin
Islands.  The Company's  revenue and the value of its properties may be affected
by a number of  factors,  including  the local  economic  climate  (which may be
adversely  impacted  by  business  layoffs or  downsizing,  industry  slowdowns,
changing  demographics,  adverse  weather  conditions,  the  health of the local
tourist  industry and other factors) and local real estate  conditions  (such as
oversupply of, or reduced demand for, retail and office space).  Therefore,  the
Company's  performance  will  likely be  dependent,  to a large  extent,  on the
economic conditions in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Inability to Repay or Refinance Indebtedness at Maturity

     The  Company  will be  subject  to  risks  normally  associated  with  debt
financing,  including the risk that the Company's cash flow will be insufficient
to meet  required  payments of  principal  and  interest,  and the risk that any
indebtedness  will not be able to be  refinanced  or that the  terms of any such
refinancing will be less favorable than the terms of the expiring indebtedness.

No Limitation on Debt

     The Company  currently has a policy of incurring debt only if expected cash
flow  from  the  project  is  sufficient  to  service  the  debt.  However,  the
organizational  documents  of the Company do not contain any  limitation  on the
amount of  indebtedness  the Company may incur.  In the event of a change in the
current practice,  the Company could become more highly leveraged,  resulting in
an increase in debt service that could adversely  affect the Company's cash flow
and an increase in the risk of default on the Company's indebtedness.

Need for Additional Financing


     While the Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Maximum Offering
will provide  adequate  capital to fund the Company's growth and development for
at least the twelve  months  following the date of this  Prospectus,  additional
financing  likely will be necessary for development of its residential  property
inventory,   expansion  into  the  financial   services  industry  or  selective
acquisitions.  In  addition,  the Company  intends to fund  certain  development
projects with an aggregate of approximately $14.7 million of bank financing over
the next three years. Even if proceeds from this offering are sufficient to fund
the  Company's  activities  during  the  next  twelve  months,  there  can be no
assurance that the Company will generate sufficient cash flow after such time to
fund its future  growth.  In such  event,  the  Company  would also have to seek
additional  borrowings,  effect  debt or equity  offerings  or  otherwise  raise
capital.


                                       13

<PAGE>

Economic Performance and Value of Properties Dependent on Many Factors

     Real  property  investments  are  subject to varying  degrees of risk.  The
yields available from equity  investments in real estate depend in large part on
the  amount  of  income  generated  and  expenses  incurred.  If  the  Company's
properties  do not  generate  revenue  sufficient  to meet  operating  expenses,
including  debt service,  tenant  improvements,  leasing  commissions  and other
capital expenditures, the Company may have to borrow additional amounts to cover
fixed  costs and the  Company's  cash flow and  results  of  operations  will be
adversely affected.

     The  Company's  revenue and the value of its  properties  may be  adversely
affected by a number of factors,  including:  the national economic climate; the
local  economic  climate;  local  real  estate  conditions;  the  perception  of
prospective  tenants of the  attractiveness of the property;  the ability of the
Company to manage and maintain its properties and secure adequate insurance; and
increased  operating  costs  (including  real estate  taxes and  utilities).  In
addition,  real estate  values and income from  properties  are affected by such
factors as applicable  laws,  including  tax laws,  interest rate levels and the
availability of financing.

Dependence on Rental Income from Real Property


     Since  substantially all of the Company's total revenue  (approximately 99%
in the year ended  December 31,  1996) is derived  from rental  income from real
property,  the Company's income and cash flow from operations would be adversely
affected if a significant  number of the  Company's  tenants were unable to meet
their  obligations  to the  Company  or if the  Company  were  unable to lease a
significant  amount of space in its properties on  economically  favorable lease
terms.  There can be no  assurance  that any tenant  whose lease  expires in the
future will renew such lease or that the Company  will be able to release  space
on economically advantageous terms.


Impact of Competition on Occupancy Levels and Rents Charged

     Numerous  retail,   office  and  commercial  properties  compete  with  the
Company's properties in attracting tenants to lease space. Some of the competing
properties may be newer,  better located or owned by parties better  capitalized
than the Company.  The number of  competitive  properties  in a particular  area
could  have a  material  adverse  effect on the  ability  to lease  space in the
Company's  properties (or at newly acquired or developed  properties) as well as
the ability to charge economically favorable rents.

Risk of Bankruptcy of Major Tenants

     The  bankruptcy  or  insolvency  of a major  tenant or a number of  smaller
tenants may have an adverse impact on the properties  affected and on the income
produced by such  properties.  Under  bankruptcy law, a tenant has the option of
assuming  (continuing) or rejecting  (terminating)  any unexpired  lease. If the
tenant  assumes its lease with the  Company,  the tenant must cure all  defaults
under the lease and provide the Company  with  adequate  assurance of its future
performance  under the lease.  If the tenant  rejects the lease,  the  Company's
claim for breach of the lease would  (absent  collateral  securing the claim) be
treated as a general unsecured claim. The amount of the claim would be capped at
the  amount  owed  for  unpaid  pre-petition  lease  payments  unrelated  to the
rejection, plus the greater of one year's lease payments or 15% of the remaining
lease  payments  payable  under the lease (but not to exceed the amount of three
years' lease payments).

Illiquidity of Real Estate Investments

     Equity real estate  investments are relatively  illiquid and therefore tend
to limit the ability of the Company to vary its  portfolio  promptly in response
to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition,  mortgage payments and,
to the extent the  properties  are not  subject  to triple net  leases,  certain
significant  expenditures  such as real estate taxes and maintenance  costs, are
generally  not reduced when  circumstances  cause a reduction in income from the
investment.  Should such economic  changes occur,  the Company's income and cash
flow from  operations  could be adversely  affected.  A portion of the Company's
properties are mortgaged to secure payment of  indebtedness,  and if the Company
were unable to meet its mortgage payments, a loss could be sustained as a result
of foreclosure on such properties by the mortgagee.

                                       14

<PAGE>

Risk of Renovation and Development Activities

     The Company intends to continue  developing  properties and acquiring other
real estate and non-real estate  businesses.  Estimates of renovation  costs and
costs of improvements to bring an acquired property up to standards  established
for the market  position  intended for that  property may prove  inaccurate.  In
addition, there are general investment risks associated with any new real estate
and non-real estate investment.

     The Company  intends to expand and  renovate  its  properties  from time to
time. Expansion and renovation projects generally require expenditure of capital
as well as various  government and other approvals,  the receipt of which cannot
be assured.  While development policies with respect to expansion and renovation
activities  are intended to limit some of the risks  otherwise  associated  with
such activities,  the Company will nevertheless  incur certain risks,  including
expenditure of funds on, and devotion of  management's  time to,  projects which
may not be completed.

     The Company  also  intends to review from time to time the  possibility  of
developing  other  commercial  ventures  on its own real  property  holdings  in
accordance with the Company's  development  policies.  Risks associated with the
Company's  development and construction  activities may include:  abandonment of
development  opportunities;  construction costs of a property exceeding original
estimates, possibly making the property uneconomical; and untimely construction,
resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs. In addition,
new  development  activities,  regardless  of whether they would  ultimately  be
successful,  typically  require a substantial  portion of management's  time and
attention. Development activities would also be subject to risks relating to the
inability to obtain,  or delays in obtaining,  all necessary  zoning,  building,
occupancy, and other required governmental permits and authorizations.

Risk of Acquisitions

     Acquisitions  entail  the risk  that  investments  may fail to  perform  in
accordance  with  expectations.  While  the  Company  to date  has  limited  its
acquisition  activity to the U.S. Virgin Islands,  the Company intends to expand
its business to  geographic  markets  outside of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands.  The
Company  initially will not possess the same  familiarity with new markets as it
has with the U.S.  Virgin Islands,  which could adversely  affect its ability to
acquire, develop or manage any new real estate and non-real estate acquisitions.

Potential Risks of Investment Outside the United States and its Territories

     All of the Company's shopping centers and other real estate holdings are in
the U.S. Virgin  Islands,  a United States  territory,  and the Company does not
have any current plans or agreements  to acquire or develop  properties  outside
the U.S.  Virgin Islands.  However,  Lockhart may acquire  shopping  centers and
other real estate in Caribbean  markets other than the U.S. Virgin  Islands.  In
addition,  PFC has  operations  in certain  Caribbean  markets  outside the U.S.
Virgin  Islands,  and  although  the  Company  intends to  continue to grow such
operations  following its  acquisition  of PFC,  these  operations are currently
immaterial  to the Company on a pro forma  basis.  As PFC's  foreign  operations
expand and if the  Company  acquires  real  estate  properties  outside the U.S.
Virgin Islands, Lockhart will be increasingly exposed to risks and uncertainties
inherent  in  foreign  markets.   Such  risks  include  currency   fluctuations,
restrictions on the repatriation of funds,  potentially adverse tax consequences
and varying  regulatory  schemes.  There can be no assurance that one or more of
such factors will not have an material  adverse  effect on the Company's  future
operations in markets outside the U.S. Virgin Islands and, consequently,  on the
Company's results of operations.

Potential Increases in Certain Taxes and Regulatory Compliance

     Because increases in income and service or transfer taxes are generally not
passed through to tenants under leases,  such increases may adversely affect the
Company's cash flow from operations.  The Company's  properties also are subject
to  various  federal,   state  and  local  regulatory   requirements,   such  as
requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act and state and local fire and
life safety requirements. Failure to comply with these requirements could result
in the imposition of fines by  governmental  authorities or awards of damages to
private litigants. The Company believes that its properties are either currently
in substantial compliance with such regulatory requirements,  or the Company has
identified  certain  necessary   improvements  and  has  begun  the  process  of
implementing such  improvements.  However,  there can be no assurance that these
requirements  will not be changed or that new  requirements  will not be imposed
which would require  significant  unanticipated  expenditures by the Company and
could  have an  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  income  and cash  flow  from
operations.

                                       15

<PAGE>

Insurance

     The  Company  carries  comprehensive  liability,  fire,  flood,  windstorm,
earthquake,  extended coverage and business interruption  insurance covering all
of its  properties,  with policy  specifications  and insured  limits  which the
Company  believes are adequate and appropriate  under the  circumstances.  There
are, however,  certain types of losses that are not generally insured because it
is not  economically  feasible to insure  against such losses.  Should a loss in
excess of insured limits occur,  the Company could lose its capital  invested in
the property,  as well as the anticipated  future revenue from the property and,
in the  case of debt  which  is  with  recourse  to the  Company,  would  remain
obligated for any mortgage debt or other  financial  obligations  related to the
property.  Any such loss would adversely affect the Company. No assurance can be
given that material losses in excess of insurance proceeds will not occur in the
future.

Environmental Risks


     Under various  federal,  state and local laws,  ordinances and regulations,
the  Company  may be  considered  an owner or  operator  of real  property  and,
therefore,  may become liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain
hazardous  substances  released  on or in its  property  or  disposed  of by the
Company,  as well as  certain  other  potential  costs  which  could  relate  to
hazardous  or toxic  substances  (including  governmental  fines and injuries to
persons and property).  Such liability may be imposed whether or not the Company
knew of,  or was  responsible  for,  the  presence  of such  hazardous  or toxic
substances. See "{{Business--Environmental Considerations}}".


Concentration of Control; Anti-Takeover Effect of Certain Charter Provisions


     The Company has two classes of  authorized  voting  Common  Stock,  Class A
Common Stock and Class B Common  Stock.  Both classes will vote  together as one
class on all matters  generally  submitted to a vote of stockholders,  including
the  election of  directors.  The holders of the Class B Common  Stock will have
approximately  97.7% of the  outstanding  voting power of the  Company's  Common
Stock,  if the Maximum  Offering is sold,  and 98.7% of the  outstanding  voting
power of the Common Stock if the Minimum  Offering is sold.  These  stockholders
will  have the  collective  ability  to elect  the  Company's  directors  and to
determine  the outcome of  corporate  actions  requiring  stockholder  approval.
Lockhart's  executive  officers  and  directors   collectively  own  or  control
approximately  3,739,931 shares of Class B Common Stock, or approximately  42.6%
and 42.7% of the voting power of the Common Stock based on the Maximum  Offering
and the Minimum Offering,  respectively. This concentration of ownership and the
disproportionate  voting  rights  of the  Class A Common  Stock  and the Class B
Common Stock may make the Company a less  attractive  target for a takeover than
it  otherwise  might  be, or  discourage  and  render  more  difficult  a merger
proposal, tender offer or proxy contest. See "Principal Stockholders".

     The Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences,  privileges and
restrictions,  including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote
or action by the stockholders. The rights of the holders of Class A Common Stock
will be subject to, and may be adversely  affected by, the rights of the holders
of any  Preferred  Stock  that may be  issued in the  future.  The  issuance  of
Preferred  Stock may have the effect of  delaying,  deterring  or  preventing  a
change of control of the Company without further action by the  stockholders and
may  adversely  affect  the voting  and other  rights of the  holders of Class A
Common  Stock.  The Company has no present  plans to issue  shares of  Preferred
Stock.

                                       16

<PAGE>


     The Company's Amended and Restated  Articles of  Incorporation,  as amended
(the "Restated Articles"),  and Amended and Restated Bylaws limit the ability of
stockholders  to raise  matters  at a meeting  of  stockholders  without  giving
advance  notice,  which may have the effect of  deterring  hostile  takeovers or
delaying or preventing  changes in control or  management of the Company.  These
provisions may limit the ability of  stockholders to approve  transactions  that
they  may  deem  to  be  in  their  best  interests  or  transactions  in  which
stockholders  might  otherwise  receive a  premium  for  their  shares  over the
prevailing market prices. See "{{Description of Capital Stock}}".

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

     If the Maximum  Offering is sold, there will be 2,000,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock  outstanding  (10,589,658  shares  assuming the  conversion  of all
outstanding  shares of Class B Common  Stock),  and there will be an  additional
200,000  shares of Class A Common Stock  outstanding  if all of the Warrants are
exercised.  The shares of Class A Common  Stock sold in this  offering or issued
upon the  exercise of the  Warrants  will be tradeable  without  restriction  by
persons other than "affiliates" of Lockhart.  The shares of Class A Common Stock
issuable  upon  conversion  of Class B Common Stock will be deemed  "restricted"
securities  within the meaning of the  Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended (the
"Securities  Act"), and, as such, may not be sold in the absence of registration
under the  Securities  Act or an exemption  therefrom,  including the exemptions
contained in Rule 144 under the Securities  Act. No prediction can be made as to
the effect,  if any, that future sales of shares of Class A Common Stock, or the
availability  of such shares for future sales,  will have on the market price of
the  shares  of Class A Common  Stock  prevailing  from  time to time.  Sales of
substantial  amounts of Class A Common Stock,  or the perception that such sales
could occur,  could adversely  affect  prevailing  market prices for the Class A
Common  Stock and such a  reduction  in the  market  price of the Class A Common
Stock  could  impair the  ability of the  Company  to raise  additional  capital
through future public offerings of its equity securities.

     The Class B  Stockholders  have  agreed  that,  subject to certain  limited
exceptions,  during the period  beginning  from the date of this  Prospectus and
continuing  to and  including  the  date  six  months  after  the  date  of this
Prospectus,  they will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of
any securities of the Company which are  substantially  similar to the shares of
Class A Common Stock or which are  convertible or  exchangeable  into securities
which  are  substantially  similar  to the  shares of Class A Common  Stock.  In
addition,  the Company's  executive officers and directors as well as beneficial
owners of 5% or more of the Class B Common  Stock have agreed  that,  subject to
certain  limited  exceptions,  beginning  from the date of this  Prospectus  and
continuing  to and  including  the  date  two  years  after  the  date  of  this
Prospectus,  they will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of
any securities of the Company which are  substantially  similar to the shares of
Class A Common Stock or which are  convertible or  exchangeable  into securities
which are substantially similar to the shares of Class A Common Stock. Following
the six-month and two-year  periods,  no assurance can be given that a holder of
Class B Common  Stock will not  decide,  based upon then  prevailing  market and
other  conditions,  to convert his or her Class B Common Stock to Class A Common
Stock  and  to  dispose  of all or a  portion  of  such  stock  pursuant  to the
provisions  of Rule 144 under the  Securities  Act,  subject  to any  applicable
volume limitations of Rule 144.

                                       17

<PAGE>

Absence of Distributions to Holders of Class A Common Stock


     Initially,  no cash distributions will be paid to holders of Class A Common
Stock;   however,  the  Board  of  Directors  has  a  policy  of  declaring  and
distributions to holders of Class B Common Stock. See "{{Distribution  Policy}}"
and "{{Description of Capital Stock}}".


No Public Market; Possible Volatility of Stock Price


     The Company's Class A Common Stock is currently not listed or traded on any
stock exchange or other quotation system,  and there can be no assurance that an
active public  market for the Company's  Class A Common Stock will develop or be
sustained  after the offering.  The Company does not intend to apply for listing
of the Warrants on any exchange or market system.  The initial  public  offering
price was determined by the Company based upon several  factors.  See "{{Plan of
Distribution}}"  for a discussion of the factors  considered in determining  the
initial public  offering  price.  If a trading market develops for the Company's
Class A Common Stock, the trading price could be subject to wide fluctuations in
response to  quarterly  variations  in operating  results,  changes in financial
estimates by securities  analysts,  the operating and stock price performance of
other  companies  that  investors  may deem  comparable to the Company and other
events or factors.  Moreover,  in some future  quarter the  Company's  operating
results may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. In
such event,  the market price of the Company's Class A Common Stock would likely
be materially and adversely affected.  In addition,  the stock market in general
has  experienced  volatility  that  often has been  unrelated  to the  operating
performance of particular companies traded on the market. These broad market and
industry  fluctuations  may adversely  affect the trading price of the Company's
Class A Common Stock, regardless of the Company's operating performance.


Immediate Dilution


     The  initial  public  offering  price of the Units is higher  than the book
value per outstanding share of Class A Common Stock. Accordingly,  purchasers in
the offering will suffer an immediate dilution of $4.73  (approximately  73%) in
the net  tangible  book  value per share of the  Class A Common  Stock  from the
initial public offering price. See "{{Dilution}}".

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS


     The table set forth below summarizes  certain  information  relating to the
anticipated use of offering  proceeds by the Company,  assuming that the Minimum
Offering and the Maximum  Offering  are sold and  assuming  that no Warrants are
exercised. While the estimated use of proceeds in the table below is believed to
be  reasonable,  this table  should be viewed  only as an estimate of the use of
proceeds.

(1)  The  National  Capital  Bank of  Washington  has  extended  the  Company  a
     revolving  line of  credit  of up to  $400,000  for a term of one year (the
     "Credit  Line").  Proceeds  from  the  Credit  Line  are to be  used to pay
     expenses  related to this  offering.  The Credit Line bears interest at the
     bank's base rate,  requires monthly payments of interest on the outstanding
     balance, and expires on July 31, 1998.

(2)  The Company has entered into a Stock Purchase  Agreement to acquire PFC for
     an aggregate purchase price of $687,500.  See  "{{Business--Acquisition  of
     PFC}}".

(3)  If the Minimum Offering is sold, the Company intends to use $4.0 million to
     reduce the  outstanding  balance of the  Development  Loan, and $500,000 to
     prepay a portion of the Red Hook Loan. If the Maximum Offering is sold, the
     Company  intends to use $4.5 million to reduce the  outstanding  balance of
     the Development Loan, and $500,000 to repay a portion of the Red Hook Loan.
     See  "{{Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
     Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources}}".

(4)  If the Maximum Offering is sold, the Company intends to use $525,000 of the
     last $1 million raised in the offering to repurchase up to 80,769 shares of
     Class B Common Stock from five of the Company's  current  stockholders at a
     redemption  price of $6.50 per share. If less than $12,000,000 is raised in
     the offering,  no shares of Class B Common Stock will be redeemed.  If more
     than  $12,000,000 but less than  $12,525,000 is raised,  then such proceeds
     will be used to redeem  shares of Class B Common Stock on a pro rata basis;
     provided,  however,  that no fractional shares of Class B Common Stock will
     be redeemed.

(5)  The Company  plans to use any  remaining net proceeds from the offering for
     general corporate and working capital  purposes,  including funding pending
     development   projects,   expansion  of  PFC's   operations  and  selective
     acquisitions.  Except  for  the PFC  acquisition,  there  currently  are no
     agreements with respect to any  acquisitions.  The Company does not believe
     it can accurately  estimate the amounts to be used for each such purpose at
     this time.  Pending such uses, the Company  intends to invest such funds in
     short-term, interest-bearing instruments or accounts.

                               DISTRIBUTION POLICY

     The Company paid cash  distributions of $317,898,  $324,487 and $330,613 to
its  stockholders  in  the  years  ended  December  31,  1994,  1995  and  1996,
respectively, and such distributions constituted a return of capital in 1994 and
1996. The Company is not a real estate investment trust and,  therefore,  is not
required to make cash distributions under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.


     Initially,  no cash distributions will be paid to holders of Class A Common
Stock.  However,  the  Board of  Directors  has a  policy  of  declaring  annual
distributions  on the Class B Common  Stock at the rate of $.038 per share.  The
Restated Articles provide that, the right of the Board of Directors to declare a
separate  dividend  payable  only on the Class B Common Stock shall cease if the
Board of  Directors  declares a  dividend  on both  classes  of Common  Stock or
declares a  distribution  in excess of $.0425 per share per annum on the Class B
Common Stock.  Thereafter,  each share of Class A Common Stock and each share of
Class B  Common  Stock  will  share  equally  in cash  distributions  and  other
distributions. See "{{Description of Capital Stock--Common Stock}}".

     The  amount  of  distributions  payable  in the  future  will  be  reviewed
periodically  by the  Board of  Directors  in light of the  Company's  earnings,
financial  condition,  net asset value,  market value and capital and other cash
requirements. It is the policy of the Board of Directors that the Company retain
an adequate portion of its earnings to support the growth of its business. There
is no requirement,  and there can be no assurance,  that  distributions  will be
paid. In addition,  covenants in the Company's Loan Agreement with Banco Popular
de  Puerto  Rico  may,  in  the  future,  restrict  Lockhart's  ability  to  pay
distributions.   See  "{{Management's   Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial
Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources}}".

                                    DILUTION


     As of  September  30,  1997,  the net  tangible  book value of Lockhart was
approximately  $7.2 million,  or $0.83 per share of Common  Stock.  Net tangible
book value per share  represents the Company's  total tangible assets less total
liabilities divided by 8,667,177 total shares of Common Stock outstanding. After
giving  effect to the net  proceeds  received  by the  Company  from the sale of
2,000,000  Units pursuant to the offering at an initial public offering price of
$6.50 per  Units,  the pro forma  net  tangible  book  value of  Lockhart  as of
September 30, 1997, would have been  approximately  $18.7 million,  or $1.77 per
share of Common Stock. Such amount represents an immediate increase in pro forma
net  tangible  book  value of $0.94 per share of Common  Stock to the  Company's
existing  stockholders  and an immediate  dilution to new investors of $4.73 per
share of Class A Common Stock.  The following  table  illustrates  the per share
dilution in pro forma net tangible book value to new investors assuming that the
maximum  number of Units are sold in the  offering and  excluding  any shares of
Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants:

Initial public offering price per Unit..........................         $6.50
  Net tangible book value per share before the offering.........  0.83

     The following table assumes the Maximum Offering is sold and summarizes, on
a pro forma basis as of September 30, 1997, the number of shares of Common Stock
purchased from Lockhart,  the total consideration paid and the average price per

purchasing  Units in the offering at an initial  public  offering price of $6.50

                         SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION


     {{The following  table}} sets forth unaudited pro forma financial and other
information as well as combined historical  financial  information for Lockhart.
The  information  for 1996,  1995 and 1994 is derived from and should be read in
conjunction  with the audited  financial  statements of the Company,  which have
been audited by Ernst & Young, LLP, independent public accountants, whose report
thereon appears elsewhere  herein;  the information for 1993 is derived from the
audited financial statements of the Company,  which have been audited by Ernst &
Young,  LLP,  although  their  report  thereon  is  not  included  herein;   the
information  for  1992 is  derived  from  audited  financial  statements  of the
Company,  which were audited by other  independent  public  accountants and were
restated by management to reflect the reorganization of the Company in 1993.

     The selected  financial  data at September 30, 1997 and for the nine months
ended  September  30, 1997 and  September  30, 1996 are derived  from  unaudited
financial  statements  of  the  Company.  The  unaudited  financial  information
includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) management
considers necessary for fair presentation of the combined financial position and
results of operations for these periods. Combined operating results for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the entire year ended December 31, 1997.


     The unaudited pro forma information reflects the following  transactions as
part of the Minimum Offering: (i) the sale of 1,153,846 shares of Class A Common
Stock for $6.50 per  share,  (ii) the use of a portion  of the net  proceeds  to
repay $4.5 million of  outstanding  debt,  and (iii) the use of a portion of the
net proceeds to acquire PFC. The pro forma  balance sheet data shows the effects
of these transactions as if they had occurred at the date of the balance sheets,
and the pro forma  operating data shows the effects of these  transactions as if
they had  occurred at the  beginning of the periods.  In addition, the pro forma
operating data for the year ended December 31, 1996 shows the effect of the June
1996 acquisition of three  properties (Fort Mylner Shopping Center,  Fort Mylner
Commercial  Center and Orange Grove Shopping Center) as if the acquisitions were
made at the  beginning  of the year.  By  necessity,  such pro  forma  operating
information incorporates certain assumptions which are described in the notes to
the  Pro  Forma  Condensed  Financial   Statements--Minimum   Offering  included
elsewhere  in this  Prospectus.  The pro forma  information  does not purport to
represent what the Company's  financial  position or results of operations would
actually  have been if these  transactions  had  occurred on such date or at the
beginning  of the  period  indicated,  or to  project  the  Company's  financial
position or results of operations at any future date or for any future period.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

     The  following  discussion  should  be read in  conjunction  with  Selected
Financial Data and the Company's  consolidated  financial  statements  appearing
elsewhere  in this  Prospectus.  Where  appropriate,  the  following  discussion
includes analysis of the effects of the offering.

     The  Company's  revenue  currently is derived from the rental of retail and
office space and the long-term ground lease of real property.  In 1996 and 1995,
building  space  rental  accounted  for 89% of total  revenue  and ground  lease
payments  accounted  for  11%  of  total  revenue.   Revenue  growth  from  1994
($3,075,709) to 1996  ($4,216,733) is primarily  attributable to the acquisition
of operating  properties.  Since  February  1995,  the Company has acquired four
shopping  centers  with an  aggregate of  approximately  100,000  square feet of
rentable space for a total purchase price of $15.5 million.

     Two wholly-owned subsidiaries,  H.E. Lockhart Management, Inc. ("HELM") and
Lockhart Realty,  Inc. ("LRI") account for 100% of the Company's  revenue.  HELM
owns and manages the Company's seven shopping centers,  serving both the tourist
and local  sectors of the economy  with a mix of office and retail  space.  HELM
also owns two parcels which it leases to tenants under long-term  ground leases.
LRI owns the  Company's  undeveloped  real  estate and  operates  the  Company's
commercial park. In 1996, HELM accounted for 89% of the Company's total revenue,
and LRI accounted for 11%.


     LRI is expected to account  for a greater  portion of total  revenue in the
future as it develops the  approximately 415 acres of land zoned for residential
use owned by the  Company.  In  addition,  LRI  currently  owns and operates the
Company's  commercial  business  park  and is  developing  a  second  commercial
business     park     and     a     new      light-industrial      park.     See
"{{Business--Properties--Development Projects}}".


     Revenue  from HELM  should  increase in 1998 as a result of  re-leasing  in
late-1997 at one of the Company's  tourist-oriented  shopping  centers at rental
rates above previous levels. Following Phase II construction at Lockhart Gardens
Shopping Center and at Grand Hotel Court in 1999, HELM should realize  increased
revenues from the additional space available at these properties.

     The Company also expects  revenue growth through  selective  acquisition of
commercial  real estate and from  diversification  into the  financial  services
industry.  Acquisition  activity and financial services growth include plans for
geographic  expansion  into other  markets,  in the  near-term  certain  eastern
Caribbean  islands,  and  eventually  to targeted  markets in North  America.  A
portion of the proceeds  from this offering will be used to acquire an insurance
premium  financing  company that has an established and growing  business in the
U.S. Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands and has made inroads into certain
other eastern Caribbean markets.


     On  September  15, 1995,  Hurricane  Marilyn  caused  damage to most of the
Company's  operating  properties.  This  event led to a  deterioration  in total
revenue as certain tenants were unable to resume business even after the damaged
properties  were  repaired  and  reconstructed.  As of September  30, 1997,  the
Company has spent an aggregate of $6.5 million to repair damage at its operating
properties caused by Hurricane Marilyn,  of which $5.9 million was reimbursed by
the  Company's  insurance  carrier.  Reconstruction  of certain  portions of the
Lockhart  Gardens  Shopping  Center  will be the final  phase of  rebuilding  of
properties  damaged by Hurricane  Marilyn.  See  "{{Business  --  Properties  --
Development Projects}}".

Results of Operations


Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 Compared with Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1996

     Total  revenue  (rental  income,  tenant  expense  reimbursement  and other
operating  income) for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 was  $3,627,428
compared to  $2,848,753  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1996.  The
$778,675 or 27% increase was  principally  attributable  to revenue from the two
Fort Mylner  properties and the Orange Grove Shopping Center,  which the Company
acquired in June 1996.  These  properties  were operated by the Company for nine
months during the period ended  September 30, 1997 compared to only three months
for the period ended  September 30, 1996. The revenue  increase  attributable to
the three acquired  properties was $728,815,  which represented 94% of the total
period-to-period increase.

     For the nine months  ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996,  total  operating
expenses were $3,471,216 and $2,605,757, respectively.

     Exclusive of depreciation and amortization,  other operating  expenses were
$2,386,318  or 66% of total  revenue and  $1,928,366 or 68% of total revenue for
the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively.  The $457,952
increase in operating  expenses  exclusive of depreciation  and amortization was
primarily  due to the three  properties  acquired in June 1996.

     Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  by $407,607 or 60% for the nine
months ended  September 30, 1997 compared to the nine months ended September 30,
1996. The increase was due primarily to the 1996 acquisitions and the $6 million
Phase I reconstruction of Lockhart Gardens Shopping Center,  which was completed
in September 1996.

     Interest  expense  increased  by $508,617 or 44% for the nine months  ended
September  30, 1997 compared to the nine months ended  September  30, 1996.  The
increase in interest expense was due to a $10.4 million increase in debt to fund
the acquisition of the three properties in June 1996.

     As a result of the foregoing, the Company showed a net loss of $940,772 for
the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 compared to a net loss of $459,741 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

Year Ended December 31, 1996 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 1995

     Total revenue for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $4,216,733
and $3,971,800,  respectively.  The $244,933 or 6% increase resulted principally
from six  months of rental  income and tenant  expense  reimbursements  from the
three  properties that were acquired in June 1996. Total revenue from properties
acquired in June 1996 of $721,902 was partially offset by a decrease of $476,969
in  revenue  from the other  properties,  primarily  as a result of damage  from
Hurricane Marilyn. With the receipt of $453,355 in insurance  reimbursements for
business  interruption  losses,  revenue  loss at the  affected  properties  was
principally  due to vacancies  resulting  from tenants who were unable to resume
business even after  reconstruction was completed at the affected properties and
continued  vacancies at the northern  section of the Lockhart  Gardens  Shopping
Center that will not be filled until additional reconstruction work is commenced
by the ground lessee.


                                       26

<PAGE>


     For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995,  total  operating  expenses
were $3,884,743 and $3,663,547, respectively.

     Exclusive of depreciation and amortization,  other operating  expenses were
$2,639,969  or 63% of total  revenue and  $2,757,284 or 69% of total revenue for
the years ended  December 31, 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  Operating  expenses
exclusive of  depreciation  decreased by $117,315 in 1996 despite the additional
expenses from the three properties acquired in June 1996. Lower expenses in 1996
were primarily attributable to a reduction in overhead costs and the elimination
of certain  professional fees incurred as a result of Hurricane Marilyn in 1995.
Adjusting for expenses of the properties  acquired in 1996,  operating  expenses
exclusive of depreciation and amortization decreased by $342,411 or 12% in 1996.

     Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  by $338,511 or 37% for the year
ended  December  31, 1996  compared to the year ended  December  31,  1995.  The
increase was due primarily to the  acquisition of three  properties in June 1996
which resulted in an increase in the  depreciable  asset base, and the write-off
of certain  capitalized  loan costs related to notes that were  liquidated  with
proceeds from the Development Loan. See "--{{Liquidity and Capital Resources}}".

     Interest  expense  increased by $591,726 or 55% for the year ended December
31, 1996 compared to the year ended  December 31, 1995. The increase in interest
expense  was  principally  due to a $10.4  million  increase in debt to fund the
acquisition of three properties in June 1996.


     Insurance  proceeds of $75,670 and  $5,916,981 for the years ended December
31, 1996 and 1995  represent  amounts  collected or  receivable  from  insurance
companies for repairs to properties damaged by Hurricane Marilyn.  By the end of
1996, the Company had utilized the insurance proceeds as follows: Drakes Passage
$430,592;   Grand  Hotel  Court  $89,883;   Lockhart   Gardens  Shopping  Center
$5,165,519;  and Red Hook  Plaza  $230,987.  With  regard to the three  shopping
centers  acquired in 1996, all hurricane  related damage had been repaired prior
to acquisition by the Company.


     For the years ended  December 31,  1996,  there  was a gain on the sale of
property  of  $86,440  as a result  of the sale of  approximately  1.7  acres of
undeveloped  land zoned for  residential  use.  For the year ended  December 31,
1995,  there was a loss of  $850,972  due to a  write-off  of net book  value of
certain properties damaged by Hurricane Marilyn.


     As a result of the  foregoing,  the Company had a net loss of $832,710  for
the year ended  December 31, 1996 compared to a net income of $2,503,875 for the
year ended December 31, 1995.

Year Ended December 31, 1995 Compared with Year Ended December 31, 1994

     Total revenue for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $3,971,800
and $3,075,709,  respectively.  The $896,091 or 29% increase was due principally
to ten months of revenue  from Red Hook  Plaza,  which was  acquired in February
1995. Total revenue from Red Hook Plaza was $718,446, which accounted for 80% of
the revenue increase.

                                       27

<PAGE>


     For the year ended  December 31, 1995 and 1994,  total  operating  expenses
were $3,663,547 and $2,661,868, respectively.

     Exclusive of depreciation and amortization,  other operating  expenses were
$2,757,284  or 69% of total  revenue and  $2,022,721 or 66% of total revenue for
the years  ended  December  31,  1995 and 1994,  respectively.  The  increase in
operating expenses exclusive of depreciation and amortization for the year ended
December 31, 1995 was due to expenditures  of the property  acquired in February
1995,  certain overhead costs related to such acquisition and professional  fees
incurred as a result of Hurricane Marilyn.

     Depreciation  and  amortization  increased  by $267,116 or 42% for the year
ended  December  31, 1995  compared to the year ended  December  31,  1994.  The
increase was due primarily to the February 1995 acquisition.

     Interest expense  increased by $646,345 or 148% for the year ended December
31, 1995 compared to the year ended  December 31, 1994.  The increase was due to
higher  interest  rates in 1995 and a $5.9 million  increase in debt to fund the
acquisition of Red Hook Plaza.


     Insurance  proceeds  of  $5,916,981  for the year ended  December  31, 1995
represented  funds collected or receivable from insurance  companies for repairs
to properties damaged by Hurricane Marilyn.

     The write-off of $850,972 for the year ended  December 31, 1995 compared to
a gain from the sale of a used vehicle of $1,713 for the previous year. The loss
for the year ended  December  31, 1995 was due to a write-off  of net book value
for properties damaged by Hurricane Marilyn.

     As a result of the  foregoing,  the Company had a net income of  $2,503,875
for the year ended  December 31, 1995  compared to a net loss of $51,258 for the
year ended December 31, 1994.

Cash Flow


     Net cash flow from  operating  activities  declined by $5.6  million in the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to the nine months ended September
30, 1996. The high level of net cash flow from operating  activities in 1996 was
due to the collection of  approximately  $5 million in insurance  proceeds.  Net
cash flow used in investing activities was $14.8 million more in 1996 due to the
acquisition  of three  properties  in 1996 and the  reconstruction  of  Lockhart
Gardens  Shopping  Center.  Net cash flow  from  financing  activities  was $9.8
million more in the nine months ended  September  30, 1996  compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 as a result of additional financing obtained for
the acquisition of the three properties in June 1996.


     Net cash flow from  operating  activities increased by $3.4 million for the
year ended December 31, 1996 compared to 1995 as a result of insurance  proceeds
collected  in 1996 for the  reconstruction  of operating  properties  damaged by
Hurricane Marilyn.  Net cash flow used in investing activities increased by $8.2
million for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to the year ended December
31, 1995 due  principally to the  acquisition  of three  properties in 1996. Net
cash flow from  financing  activities  increased  by $6  million  as a result of
increased debt to fund the 1996 acquisitions.

                                       28

<PAGE>

     Net cash flow from operating  activities increased by $306,201 for the year
ended December 31, 1995 compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 as a result
of  insurance  proceeds  collected in 1995 for the  reconstruction  of operating
properties  damaged  by  Hurricane  Marilyn.  Net cash  flow  used in  investing
activities  increased  by $5.4  million  for the year ended  December  31,  1995
compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 due  principally to the acquisition
of one  operating  property  in 1995.  Net cash flow from  financing  activities
increased by $4.7 million as a result of increased debt to fund the acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


     On October 21, 1996,  HELM entered into a Loan Agreement (the  "Development
Loan") with Banco  Popular de Puerto Rico ("BPPR") to: (i)  consolidate  certain
pre-existing development loans; (ii) refinance certain acquisition indebtedness;
(iii) reduce the Company's  interest costs;  and (iv) achieve level debt service
payments.  The  parent  company,  Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation,  and  HELM's
subsidiaries  have each fully and  unconditionally  guaranteed  the  Development
Loan.  The  Development  Loan limits the amount of dividends HELM can pay to the
parent company and, therefore, may limit the funds available for distribution to
the Company's stockholders.  Currently,  HELM may not pay dividends in excess of
$500,000  without  the written  consent of BPPR,  which  effectively  restricted
approximately  $2.5  million of the net assets of HELM as of December  31, 1996.
Approximately  $19.1  million of proceeds from the  Development  Loan were drawn
down,  primarily to retire the mortgages on certain  operating  properties,  and
such amount is secured by  first-priority  mortgages on Drakes Passage  Shopping
Mall,  the Fort Mylner  properties,  the Grand  Hotel  Court,  Lockhart  Gardens
Shopping Center and Orange Grove Shopping Center and a second-priority  mortgage
on Red Hook Plaza.  The  Company is  obligated  to make  monthly  principal  and
interest  payments of  approximately  $163,500 with respect to the $19.1 million
and expects to fund such payments with cash flow from operations.

     The Development  Loan also provides for a $1 million line of credit with an
interest  rate of 0.5% above the prime  rate.  As of  September  30,  1997,  the
Company had $254,000  available under the line of credit,  and the interest rate
was 9.0%. In addition,  the Development Loan will provide approximately $580,000
to fund the development of the Garden Mall at Lockhart  Gardens Shopping Center.
See  "{{Business--Properties--Development  Projects}}".  The entire  outstanding
balance under the Development Loan is due and payable on April 1, 2000. However,
BPPR has agreed, subject to certain conditions,  including the continued absence
of any material  default by the Company under the  Development  Loan, to convert
the balance into a 15-year  installment loan with conditions similar to those of
the  Development  Loan.  The  Company  does not  expect to have  adequate  funds
available  to retire the  outstanding  balance on April 1, 2000,  and intends to
refinance the Development Loan,  possibly with BPPR. For additional  information
regarding  the  Development  Loan,  see  Note  3 to the  Company's  consolidated
financial statements.

     In 1991, BPPR has loaned LRI $1,135,000 to finance the development of Sugar
Estate  Park,  and such loan is secured by seven  acres of land at Sugar  Estate
Park.  BPPR has agreed to extend a $3.8  million line of credit to LRI (the "LRI
Loan"). The amount currently owed to BPPR by LRI will be refinanced with the LRI
Loan,  and the  remaining  balance of the LRI Loan will be available to fund the
development  of Sugar  Estate  Commercial  Centre and Market  Square  East.  See
"{{Business--Properties  --Development Projects}}". The LRI Loan will be secured
by mortgages on Sugar Estate  Park,  Sugar Estate  Commercial  Centre and Market
Square East.

     In February  1995,  the Company  acquired  Red Hook Plaza for an  aggregate
purchase price of $5.8 million from an unaffiliated  party. The Company financed
this purchase with a $4.7 million first-priority  mortgage payable to the seller
(the "Red Hook Loan") and $1.1 million of  additional  debt  financing.  The Red
Hook Loan bears  interest  at 8.75% per annum and matures in January  2004.  The
$1.1 million was  refinanced in October 1996 with proceeds from the  Development
Loan.


     In June 1996, the Company acquired the Fort Mylner Commercial  Center,  the
Fort  Mylner  Shopping  Center  and the  Orange  Grove  Shopping  Center  for an
aggregate  purchase  price of $10.1  million  from an  unaffiliated  party.  The
Company financed this purchase with mortgage indebtedness that was refinanced in
October 1996 with proceeds from the Development Loan.


     The  National  Capital Bank of  Washington  has extended to the Company the
Credit Line for up to $400,000 to be used to fund expenses  associated with this
offering. Amounts outstanding under the Credit Line will be repaid with proceeds
from this offering. See "{{Use of Proceeds}}".

     After  giving  effect  to  this  offering  and the  application  of the net
proceeds   therefrom,   the  Company  expects   improvements  in  its  financial
performance through changes to its capital structure,  principally a significant
reduction in total debt.  The Company's  total debt is expected to be reduced by
$4.5  million and $5.0  million  assuming  the  Minimum  Offering or the Maximum
Offering is sold,  respectively.  Total debt, excluding payables and accrued and
deferred expenses,  is expected to be $21.1 million and $20.6 million,  assuming
the Minimum Offering or the Maximum Offering is sold, respectively,  compared to
$25.6  million as of  September  30,  1997.  The Company  expects this change to
result in a reduction in mortgage  interest  expense and,  therefore,  cash flow
from operations should increase by a corresponding  amount.


     The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements from cash
flow from  operations.  The  Company  expects  cash  provided by  operations  to
increase  over the  long-term  as a result of (i) a reduction  of net  operating
funds needed to fund annual debt service,  (ii) the acquisition of PFC and (iii)
increased  net rentable  space from the  reconstruction  and  renovation  of two
operating  properties.  The Company also believes that the foregoing  sources of
liquidity  will be sufficient  to fund its  short-term  liquidity  needs for the
foreseeable future, including capital maintenance expenditures.

     The Company expects to meet certain long-term  liquidity  requirements such
as acquisitions,  scheduled debt maturities, renovations, expansions, commercial
and  residential   development   ventures,   and  other  non-recurring   capital
improvements  through  long-term  secured and unsecured debt and the issuance of
additional equity securities.


Recent Developments

     The Company has entered into an  agreement  to lease No. 10 Estate  Thomas,
which is  adjacent  to Sugar  Estate  Park.  No. 10 Estate  Thomas  consists  of
approximately 2.64 acres zoned for business development and includes a Victorian
style  residence,  which  sustained  damage in  Hurricane  Marilyn.  The Company
intends to repair the  residence,  converting it into office space,  and to move
its principal executive offices into the new space. The lease agreement requires
the Company to pay monthly  rent equal to the greater of $2,100 or one-half  the
rent  received  by the  Company  from No. 44 Estate  Thomas,  which the  Company
currently uses as its principal executive offices. No. 10 Estate Thomas is owned
by  Gertrude L.  Melchior,  one of the  Company's  principal  stockholders.  See
"{{Certain   Relationships   and  Related   Transactions}}"   and   "{{Principal
Stockholders}}".

     The Company has entered into a non-binding letter of intent with one of the
ground  lessees at Sugar Estate Park,  to sell to the ground  lessee the acreage
that is  currently  leased to such lessee for $2.8  million  (the "Sugar  Estate
Sale").  The Company is also  negotiating  for the purchase of a shopping center
located on Raphune Hill on St.  Thomas (the  "Raphune  Hill  Acquisition").  The
Company is  considering  structuring  the Raphune  Hill  Acquisition  as a joint
venture with an  unaffiliated  third party and funding the Company's  investment
with a combination of bank financing and up to $1 million of the proceeds of the
Sugar Estate Sale. The Company intends to use a portion of the proceeds from the
Sugar  Estate Sale to repay the LRI Loan,  which had a balance of $750,000 as of
September 30, 1997. The Sugar Estate Sale and the Raphune Hill  Acquisition  are
subject to negotiation of definitive  agreements,  and there can be no assurance
that  definitive  terms  will be  agreed  to or that  the  transactions  will be
consummated.

Forward Looking Statements

     Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations  and  other  sections  of  this  Prospectus  contain  forward-looking
statements which are subject to various risks and uncertainties.  Actual results
could differ  materially from those  discussed  herein.  Important  factors that
could cause or contribute to such  differences  include  those  discussed  under
"Risk Factors" as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Prospectus.

New Accounting Pronouncements

     In February 1997, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement  of Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS")  No. 128,  Earnings per
Share. This pronouncement establishes new standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share and applies to all entities  with  publicly held common stock
or potential common stock. This Statement is effective for financial  statements
issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997 and earlier application is not
permitted.  Management  believes that the application of this Statement will not
have a material effect on the presentation of the Company's earnings per share.

     In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123,  Accounting for  Stock-Based
Compensation.  While  all  entities  are  encouraged  to adopt  this  method  of
accounting for all employee  stock  compensation  plans,  SFAS No. 123 allows an
entity to continue to measure  compensation  costs for its plan as prescribed by
APB  Opinion  No.  25,  Accounting  for Stock  Issued to  Employees.  Management
believes that  application of this Statement will not have a material  effect on
the Company's financial statements.

                                    BUSINESS


Overview

     Lockhart is an enterprise  predominately  owned by lineal  descendants (and
their  spouses) of Alfred H.  Lockhart  and his son,  Herbert E.  Lockhart.  The
Company and its predecessors have conducted  business in the U.S. Virgin Islands
since 1884,  which makes  Lockhart  one of the oldest  continuous  operators  of
commercial properties in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The enterprise,  which started
out as a general goods store,  has evolved over the years into the largest owner
of shopping centers in the U.S. Virgin Islands.  In 1972, the Company solidified
its  position  as a leader in  commercial  real estate  development  through the
construction  of the first  shopping  center on St. Thomas.  This facility,  the
Lockhart Gardens Shopping Center,  was the first commercial  property located on
St.  Thomas to host  national  retailers.  Lockhart  is also one of the  largest
owners of undeveloped land on the island of St. Thomas.


     Since 1987 the Company has been under the  direction of George H.T.  Dudley
and Wesley S.  Williams,  Jr., two family members who function as Co-Chairmen of
the Board of Directors and Co-CEOs of the Company. Both are practicing attorneys
with  specialities in banking,  finance and real estate.  Shortly after assuming
their roles, they recruited experienced professionals from outside the family to
manage the daily  affairs of the Company.  Under this  management,  Lockhart has
experienced a period of substantial  growth through  property  acquisitions  and
commercial  property  development.  Since 1987,  the Company has  acquired  four
shopping  centers  with an  aggregate  of  approximately  99,750  square feet of
rentable space, expanded one shopping center by approximately 6,000 square feet,
developed one commercial park,  commenced the development of a second commercial
park,  completed  the  first  phase of  renovation  of the  Grand  Hotel  Court,
completed  the  reconstruction  of 85,000 square feet of retail space damaged by
Hurricane Marilyn,  and completed an updated  master-plan for the development of
the Company's commercial and residential undeveloped land holdings. In addition,
under the  leadership of Messrs.  Dudley and Williams,  the Lockhart  management
team has  restructured  the Company's  finances through the Development Loan and
effected a series of corporate  transactions  that were executed to: (i) enhance
the effective management of the Company's properties; (ii) enable the Company to
finance its real estate and non-real estate endeavors more easily;  (iii) adhere
to the dictates of the evolving tax laws; (iv) eliminate and mitigate  financial
exposure of Company assets to unrelated liability;  and (v) position the Company
for this offering.

     Lockhart  owns,  acquires,  operates,  renovates,   develops,  and  manages
shopping centers and other  commercial real estate,  primarily on the islands of
St. Thomas and St. Croix. The Company currently owns and operates seven shopping
centers and is actively  planning or developing  seven  projects.  Lockhart also
owns and operates  commercial  parks in which it builds the  infrastructure  for
commercial development (roads and utilities) and leases designated parcels under
long-term  ground  leases.  In  addition,  the  Company  owns  an  aggregate  of
approximately  415  acres of  undeveloped  real  estate  zoned  for  residential
development of varying densities. The Company also owns No. 44 Estate Thomas, an
office  building  which the Company  currently  uses as its principal  executive
offices. No. 44 Estate Thomas is adjacent to Sugar Estate Park, and the building
has  approximately  2,400 square feet of office space. In management's  opinion,
the Company's properties are covered adequately by insurance.

     The Company's  primary business  strategies are to: (i) actively manage its
developed  real  property  portfolio  to improve  cash flow;  (ii)  complete its
planned  projects and develop its land  holdings for their highest and best use;
(iii) selectively  execute real property  acquisitions in strategic  submarkets;
and (iv) selectively  diversify into strategic sectors of the financial services
industry.  The Company  believes  that its operating  properties  are located in
strong retail  submarkets  for tourists,  local  consumers or commercial  office
tenants.   This  dispersion  among  local  submarkets  mitigates  the  Company's
dependence on the tourism industry or any one local market sector.  In addition,
the Company  currently has seven  commercial  projects in the advanced  planning
stage.  Lockhart  also plans to develop its inventory of 415 acres of land zoned
for residential use.

     Capitalizing  on  the  collective   experience  of  the  Company's   senior
management in the financial services industry, Lockhart intends to diversify its
operations  to  provide  select   financial   services.   As  a  first  step  to
diversification  into the financial services industry,  the Company is acquiring
Premium  Finance  Company of the V.I.,  Inc.  ("PFC").  PFC  provides  insurance
premium  financing  primarily to residents  of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands and the
British Virgin Islands. Lockhart has agreed to acquire PFC for $687,500 and will
use  a  portion  of  the  proceeds  from  this  offering  to  complete  the  PFC
acquisition. See "{{Use of Proceeds}}".

The U.S. Virgin Islands


     The {{United States Virgin Islands}} (see Addendum C) are an unincorporated
territory  of the United  States.  The islands are located  approximately  1,100
miles  southeast of Miami and  approximately  1,500 miles  southeast of New York
City. Puerto Rico is approximately 40 miles west of St. Thomas,  and the British
Virgin Islands are less than three miles  northeast of St. John, one of the U.S.
Virgin Islands.  Charlotte Amalie,  St. Thomas,  is the capital.  English is the
official  language,  and the U.S.  dollar  is the  currency  of the U.S.  Virgin
Islands.

     More  than  fifty  islands  make up the  U.S.  Virgin  Islands.  The  three
principal  islands are St. Croix,  St. Thomas and St. John. St. Croix (82 square
miles) is the largest of the three  islands  and is known for its rolling  hills
and broad central plain, which separates the dry east end from the more tropical
west end. St. Thomas (32 square miles) is the commercial hub of the U.S.  Virgin
Islands  and is the second  most  cosmopolitan  island in the  Caribbean,  after
Puerto  Rico.  Two-thirds  of St.  John (20 square  miles) is  dedicated  to the
National Park System. St. Thomas and St. John are distinguished by a mountainous
topography with numerous sandy beaches and inlets along the shoreline.

     Tourism  accounts for a large portion of the U.S. Virgin Islands'  economy.
In 1994, 1995 and 1996, total visitor  expenditures  were  approximately  $919.6
million,  $822.3 million, and $687.4 million,  respectively,  in the U.S. Virgin
Islands,  with tourist  expenditures  accounting for approximately  68%, 65% and
49%, respectively.  The majority of visitors arrive by cruise ship. In 1994, the
U.S. Virgin Islands had approximately 1,921,400 visitors, of which approximately
1,242,900 were cruise passengers;  in 1995, there were  approximately  1,741,300
visitors, of which approximately 1,171,300 were cruise passengers;  and in 1996,
there were approximately  1,774,200 visitors,  of which approximately  1,316,400
were cruise passengers.  Tourism related  employment  accounts for a significant
percentage of the labor force in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Specifically, in 1994,
1995 and 1996,  tourism-related  employment accounted for 19.2%, 18.8% and 15.5%
of the labor force,  respectively.  The  unemployment  rates for the U.S. Virgin
Islands in 1994,  1995 and 1996 were 5.6%, 5.7% and 5.2%,  respectively.  Recent
declines in tourism  and  tourist-related  expenditures  and  employment  can be
attributed  almost  entirely to Hurricane  Marilyn.  The Company expects that as
damage from  Hurricane  Marilyn is repaired,  tourism and related  activity will
recover and eventually surpass pre-hurricane levels.

(1)  Decreased  occupancy rates during 1996 and 1995 were attributable to damage
     caused by Hurricane Marilyn.

     {{The Fort Mylner Properties}} consist of the Fort Mylner Commercial Center
with  approximately  10,800 square feet of rentable  space on two floors and the
Fort Mylner  Shopping Center with  approximately  26,200 square feet of rentable
space.  The total parking spaces  available at both properties is  approximately
115. Both  properties were acquired by the Company in June 1996 for an aggregate
purchase  price of $6.4 million.  The Fort Mylner  properties are located in the
business  district  of the  Tutu  area,  one of the  most  populous  residential
communities on St. Thomas.


     The Tutu  commercial  area market consist of  approximately  356,000 square
feet of aggregate  retail and office square footage that directly  competes with
the Fort Mylner  properties.  As of late 1996,  the average quoted market rental
rates per square  foot were  $27.50  and  $21.50  for  retail and office  space,
respectively.

     For the year ended December 31, 1996  (representing six months of ownership
and  management  by the Company) and the nine months ended  September  30, 1997,
utility expense was approximately $27,395 and $65,019, respectively, and expense
for repairs,  maintenance and professional  services were approximately  $28,311
and $33,387, respectively.


     The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  the  nature,  extent and timing of
capital  improvements that will be undertaken during the next five years.  Major
projects  identified  consist of realigning the access points to the properties,
installing a generator to service the shopping  center and painting the exterior
of the shopping center.  Management  believes that a portion of the expenditures
associated with painting the shopping center will be recovered from the tenants,
as will the maintenance associated with the generator.

     The  Company,  after  reasonable  inquiry,  is not  aware  of any  material
factors,  other  than  those  discussed  above,  that  would  cause the  audited
Statement of Revenue and Certain  Expenses of Fort Mylner  Properties,  Inc. for
the  twelve  month  period  ended June 30,  1997,  contained  elsewhere  in this
Prospectus not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results.

     {{The Grand Hotel  Court}} (the "Grand  Hotel") is located at the beginning

of the main tourist shopping  district in downtown St. Thomas and one block from
the municipal  parking lot. The Grand Hotel complex  consists of four  two-story
stone and  timber  buildings  with an  aggregate  of  approximately  24,000  net
rentable square feet of retail and office space, of which 4,500 square feet will
be available upon completion of Phase II. See "--Development Projects".  Tenants
include  Irmela's Jewel Studio,  Island  Periodicals and  International  Voyager
Media; no tenant occupies 10% or more of the rentable space.

     The Grand Hotel Court complex was  originally  built in the early 1800s and
is  located  in the  Charlotte  Amalie  historic  district.  Alfred H.  Lockhart
acquired the property in 1914. The Company  extensively  renovated the interiors
and  exteriors  of three of the  Grand  Hotel's  four  buildings  in 1994 for an
aggregate cost of $1.9 million.  Lockhart intends to invest  approximately  $1.4
million to complete the second  phase of  renovations  to the Grand  Hotel.  See
"--{{Development Projects}}".

     {{Lockhart Gardens Shopping Center}} ("Lockhart Gardens") is located on the
eastern edge of Charlotte  Amalie and within walking distance of the main cruise
ship dock. Lockhart Gardens consists of approximately 140,200 square feet of net
rentable  square feet,  which  includes a ground lease of  approximately  30,000
square  feet.  Lockhart  Gardens  has  approximately  245  parking  spaces.  The
Company's major tenant will be a department store operated by Kmart  Corporation
("Kmart").  Kmart  has  leased  approximately  60,000  square  feet at  Lockhart
Gardens.  The space  leased by Kmart was formerly  occupied by  Woolworth  Corp.
("Woolworth"),  which has closed its  operations in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands as
part of its  previously  announced  intention  to exit the  general  merchandise
business in the United  States.  Other key tenants  currently  include  BPPR and
Footlocker.


     A supermarket was operated pursuant to a ground lease of 30,000 square feet
of land until Hurricane Marilyn destroyed the entire shopping center,  including
the supermarket,  in September 1995. The supermarket continues to make its lease
payments but has not begun reconstruction of the building, as required under its
lease. Lockhart and the ground lessee are presently in litigation regarding this
matter and hope to achieve an amicable  resolution,  which may include assigning
the ground lease to another  party  willing to  reconstruct  the  facility.  The
Company  has  reconstructed  one-half  of the  shopping  complex  and intends to
complete reconstruction of the complex upon resolution of the dispute concerning
the  supermarket's  ground  lease.  See  "--{{Development  Projects" -- Lockhart
Gardens Shopping Center -- Phase II}}.


     Woolworth  decided to close its department store operations  throughout the
United States,  including the U.S. Virgin  Islands,  and as of October 31, 1997,
ceased retail sales at Lockhart Gardens. Woolworth's lease does not expire until
2001, and it is obligated to make base rental payments and tenant reimbursements
until  2001.  The  Company  and  Woolworth  are  currently  negotiating  a lease
termination agreement. Kmart will take possession of the space formerly occupied
by Woolworth on January 1, 1998, pursuant to the terms of Kmart's lease with the
Company.  Kmart anticipates commencement of retail activity in March, 1998.

     {{Orange Grove Shopping  Center}}  ("Orange Grove") is located just outside

of  Christiansted,  the largest town on St.  Croix,  on the main traffic  artery
leading westward out of town. The Company acquired Orange Grove in June 1996 for
an aggregate  purchase price of $3.6 million.  The  approximately  30,600 square
feet of net rentable  square feet at Orange Grove are used for retail and office
space.  The major tenant is BPPR which leases  approximately  5,400 square feet.
Other tenants include Kentucky Fried Chicken, PC Paradise (a computer retail and
service company) and the Medical Air Services Association.

     The Christiansted area submarket  consists of approximately  125,000 square
feet of  aggregate  retail and office  square  footage in shopping  centers that
directly  compete with Orange Grove.  As of late 1996, the average quoted market
rental rates per square foot were $13.50 and $10.50 for retail and office space,
respectively.

     For the year ended December 31, 1996  (representing six months of ownership
and  management  by the Company) and the nine months ended  September  30, 1997,
utility expense was approximately $19,931 and $33,085, respectively, and expense
for repairs, maintenance and professional services were approximately $8,778 and
$12,730, respectively.

     The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  the  nature,  extent and timing of
capital  improvements that Orange Grove will require during the next five years.
Major projects  identified consist of revising the ingress and egress points and
painting the exterior.  Management  believes that a portion of the  expenditures
associated with painting will be recovered from the tenants.

Ground Leases

     {{Sugar Estate Park}} (the "Park") is a commercial  business park developed

by the  Company on the  eastern  edge of  Charlotte  Amalie,  mid-island  on St.
Thomas.  The Park consists of an aggregate of approximately  11.7 acres of land,
which has been subdivided for lease to tenants under long-term  ground leases or
development by the Company.


     Lockhart  has  leased  an  aggregate  of  approximately  5.4  acres to four
commercial tenants under long-term ground leases at the Park. In addition, there
are two one-acre  parcels  available for lease. The Company provides paved roads
and  underground  utility  access at the Park, and tenants  construct  their own
facilities.  Current tenants operate a self-storage  facility, a building supply
store, a corporate office and  distribution  center for a local retail operation
and an electrical  supply outlet.  Three of these leases expire in 2000, and the
fourth expires in 2001. Each lease is subject to two five-year  renewal options.
Upon expiration of each tenant's lease, the Company will obtain ownership of all
improvements on the land.


     The Company has reserved approximately 2.5 acres at the Park to develop two
projects.  See "--{{Development  Projects--Sugar Estate Commercial Centre}}" and
"--{{Sugar Estate Plaza}}".


     The tax basis for the Park is approximately $1,064,000,  and the realty tax

chain and a movie theater chain (for the  construction of a multi-screen  cinema
and  restaurant  complex).  The Company  will clear the site and  construct  the
required infrastructure,  consisting of parking facilities, utilities, drainage,
power and access roads.  The scheduled  completion date of Phase I is the latter
half of 1998, and the estimated construction cost to the Company of $1.8 million
will be financed with proceeds from this offering and the LRI Loan.

     Phase II, currently in the preliminary  development stage, will involve the
Company  rezoning  a portion  of the  property  for  commercial  use,  executing
long-term   ground  leases  and   constructing   build-to-suit   facilities  for
high-quality  tenants.  The Company will continue to provide the infrastructure,
consisting of parking  facilities,  utilities,  drainage,  power and roads.  The
scheduled  completion date is dependent on the progress of the Company's leasing
program.

     {{Longford  Industrial  Park}}  ("Longford")  is located  just off the main
highway that connects  Charlotte Amalie to the eastern end of St. Thomas,  where
the majority of the island's  population  resides.  Longford  will consist of 16
half-acre  parcels  available for long-term  ground lease by light  industry and
manufacturers,  who will construct their own facilities. The Company has cleared
the site and public water and electrical  power are available.  Lockhart intends
to construct paved roads, a sewage treatment plant and appropriate  drainage and
install  electrical  power  and sewer  connections  to the  subdivided  parcels.
Construction  of  such   improvements  will  begin  once  suitable  tenants  are
identified.  The Company has  invested  $100,000 as of September  30, 1997,  and
estimates that the total cost of Longford will be $1.3 million.

     {{Lockhart Gardens Shopping  Center-Phase II}} involves the construction of
approximately  47,000 square feet of rentable  space in the northern half of the
shopping center, which includes 30,000 square feet currently subject to a ground
lease. As a part of that development, the Company has arranged with the Division
of  Highway  Planning  of the  Government  of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands  for the
installation  of  signalized  access from the main  east-west  roadway  into the
shopping center. The scheduled completion date is mid-1999 for an estimated cost
of $5.5 million.

     {{Grand Hotel  Court-Phase  II}} involves the final phase of the renovation

process  of the  entire  property  that  began  in 1994  with  the  first  phase
renovations of three of the four buildings surrounding the courtyard. This final
phase of work is targeted to the fourth (main)  building,  which has frontage on
the main artery of the tourist shopping  district in downtown  Charlotte Amalie,
and will create a central  atrium space and ground level  passage  surrounded at
both levels by high-end retail shops and a theme restaurant at the second level.
Approximately  4,500 square feet of additional space will be available for lease
by the Company upon completion.  The scheduled  completion date is late 1999, at
which time the property  will be renamed the "Grand  Galleria" and marketed as a
high-end tourist shopping destination.  The Company estimates construction costs
of $1.4 million.

     {{Sugar  Estate  Plaza}} will also be located in Sugar Estate Park and will
be constructed in two phases.  When  completed,  the  two-building,  three-story
complex will provide  approximately  55,000  square feet of rentable  retail and
office space.  The Company has had preliminary  discussions with certain primary
tenants for the first phase of  development.  The scheduled  completion date for
the entire  complex is early 2001, and the estimated  construction  cost is $5.3
million.

Residential Property


     The Company owns  approximately 415 acres of undeveloped land on St. Thomas
which are zoned for residential use of differing levels of density.  The Company
intends to selectively  develop this land with  single-family  and  multi-family
residential developments. In some areas, Lockhart will limit its activity to the
development of the infrastructure (roads,  utilities and sewers) and subdivision
of  the  property  for  sale  as  residential  lots  for  individual   homeowner
construction.  In some  projects,  Lockhart may joint  venture with  experienced
residential  developers to build homes to be offered for sale. In certain areas,
the Company may sell parcels to other parties for development.


     Where  appropriate,  the Company may seek zoning  changes or  variances  to
maximize the development potential of its undeveloped real estate inventory. The
re-zoning  process is a 6-9 month  process that  involves both the Executive and
Legislative  branches  of the  Government  of the Virgin  Islands.  The  process
commences with the formal filing of an Application to Amend the Official  Zoning
Map (the "Application") with the Virgin Islands' Legislature. The Application is
forwarded by the Legislature to the V.I. Government's Department of Planning and
Natural  Resources  ("DPNR")  which  undertakes  an  analysis  of the  re-zoning
request.  An  Application  file is  then  created  by the  DPNR,  outlining  the
re-zoning request and the intended use of the land, and opened for public review
and public  impact  assessment.  Public  hearings are  scheduled  by DPNR,  with
appropriate  notification to the general public and adjacent  property owners of
the hearing  dates.  Upon  completion  of the public  hearing,  the DPNR makes a
recommendation  on the  Application to the Virgin  Islands'  Legislature for its
final  consideration  and  action.  A re-zoning  request  approved by the Virgin
Islands' Legislature  constitutes legislation that also requires the approval of
the Governor of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands prior to amending the Official  Zoning
Map. The Company last submitted a re-zoning request in 1986 for 100 acres, which
was  approved by the Virgin  Islands'  Legislature  and the Governor in 1987 and
represented  the  largest  single  commercial  development  rezoning in the U.S.
Virgin Islands in the last thirty years.

Competition

     Under certain circumstances, the Company may have difficulty in effectively
competing  against other  parties for  acquisition  opportunities.  In addition,
numerous retail,  office and commercial  properties  currently  compete with the
Company's operating properties in attracting and retaining tenants.  Further, an
increase in the number of competitive  properties in any particular submarket in
which the Company's  properties are located could have a material adverse effect
on the  Company's  ability to lease space and the rents  charged at any property
owned by the Company in accordance with the Company's internal growth strategy.

Acquisition of PFC


     Lockhart has entered into a Stock Purchase  Agreement,  dated as of October
3,  1997,  to  purchase  the  outstanding  shares  of  stock  from  all  of  the
shareholders of PFC. PFC is a U.S. Virgin Islands corporation,  which was formed
in 1993,  and has its main office  located on St.  Croix.  The Company  plans to
purchase  the  outstanding  PFC shares for  $687,500 and to use a portion of the
proceeds from this offering to pay the purchase price. The acquisition of PFC is
subject to regulatory confirmation by the Lieutenant Governor of the U.S. Virgin
Islands acting in his capacity as Commissioner of Insurance.  Although  Lockhart
has  submitted its request for approval to the  Lieutenant  Governor and expects
the  Lieutenant  Governor's  approval,  the  timing  of the  process  cannot  be
predicted with any certainty.


     PFC is engaged in the business of financing  insurance premiums incurred by
individuals  and  small  companies  seeking  to  insure  primarily  automobiles,
personal  residences,  commercial  buildings,  boats and  airplanes,  as well as
builder's risk or liability.  PFC's business is generated  through the referrals
from  insurance  agents and brokers  that are the first point of contact for the
consumer in the  procuring  of  insurance  coverage.  The  insured  will make an
initial down payment on the insurance premium (20-30%) with the balance financed
by PFC over a nine month  period.  The amount  financed  by PFC  usually is sent
directly  to the  insurance  carrier  or to its  local  agent.  In the event the
insured becomes  delinquent,  PFC has the right to cancel the policy and to draw
on the unearned premium  refunded by the insurance  company to repay the balance
owing on the loan. PFC also requires each  insurance  agent or broker to sign an
agreement  that  stipulates  the  basis  of the  relationship  and  the  flow of
documents  and funds with respect to coverage of the insured.  The interest rate
and repayment terms of the premium financed depend on whether the borrower is an
individual  or business  entity,  the amount of the down  payment and the amount
borrowed.


     PFC is the largest independent premium financing company in the U.S. Virgin
Islands and has  operations  in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands,  the  British  Virgin
Islands  and  Anguilla  (West  Indies).  In  addition,   PFC  recently  received
government  approval to do business in St. Maarten,  Netherlands  Antilles.  Its
primary  competitors are smaller premium finance  companies and insurance agents
and insurers that will finance premiums for select,  primarily larger,  clients.
Commercial banks also provide this service to select customers. In mid-1997, PFC
expanded its services to other Caribbean  markets to increase volume and achieve
diversification.  Through its wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Premium Finance Company
(E.C.)  Limited,  an  Anguilla  (West  Indies)  corporation  ("PFC-EC"),  PFC is
currently  doing business in Antigua and Barbuda.  PFC has a current  network of
twenty-two  agents  in the  U.S.  Virgin  Islands,  four in the  British  Virgin
Islands, four in Anguilla and five in Antigua.  Expansion plans for 1998 include
St. Lucia, St. Vincent and Grenada.  The Caribbean market represents a potential
aggregate customer base of over five million people.


     PFC's staff  consists of four  individuals,  with an  additional  two to be
hired by the end of 1997. It is the  Company's  intent to retain the services of
PFC's current  employees,  including its president Richard E.W. Grant. Mr. Grant
is the founder of PFC and a former  officer of Barclays  Bank PLC,  with over 30
years of experience in finance and banking on various Caribbean islands.

                                       46

<PAGE>


     In  connection  with the  pending  acquisition,  the Company has loaned PFC
$75,000,  which will be converted into a capital  contribution upon consummation
of the acquisition.  Lockhart has guaranteed a line-of-credit  of up to $200,000
for  PFC-EC  at a local  bank.  In July  1997,  two of the  Company's  executive
officers,  John P.  deJongh,  Jr. and Cornel  Williams,  were elected to the PFC
board of directors. See "{{Management--Executive Officers and Directors}}".


Business and Growth Strategies


     The Company's  fundamental  business and growth  strategies  are focused on
developing or acquiring  shopping centers and office buildings that either serve
the local  community  or are  located  in  select  tourist  destinations,  and a
carefully planned diversification into the consumer financial services industry.
The Caribbean  market (with an aggregate  population  base of over five million)
represents  one of the  fastest  growing  economic  regions in the  world,  with
tourism as the driving  force behind that growth.  The Company  believes that as
the island economies of the region grow, there will be a corresponding growth in
the financial  well-being of the resident  population matched by a growth in the
number and size of the  businesses  catering to increasing  consumer  demand for
both  goods  and  financial  services.  Based on this  operating  paradigm,  the
Company's  business  objectives are to develop the  commercial  locations out of
which these  businesses  will  operate and to offer  select  consumer  financial
services  to serve  consumer  demand  presently  not met by the  banks and other
existing financial intermediaries of the region.


     Lockhart  believes  that a number of  economic  factors  will  enhance  its
ability to achieve its business  objectives:  (i) the continuing  improvement in
the economies of the U.S. Virgin Islands and other Caribbean  markets  following
Hurricane Marilyn and other recent hurricanes in the region;  (ii) the Company's
focus on the  growing  consumer  needs  of the  increasingly  affluent  resident
populations  of the  region;  (iii)  in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands,  the  limited
availability of undeveloped property zoned for commercial use and the continuing
need for  housing  at various  price  levels;  and (iv)  apart from the  limited
traditional  offerings of commercial  banks, the general  inadequacy of consumer
financial services offered throughout the Caribbean region.


     The Company's  primary business  strategies are to: (i) actively manage its
property  portfolio to improve cash flow; (ii) complete its planned projects and
develop its land  holdings  for their  highest and best use;  (iii)  selectively
execute real property acquisitions in strategic submarkets; and (iv) selectively
expand its  diversification  into strategic  segments of the financial  services
industry.


     External Growth


     The Company  intends to grow externally by acquiring  additional  developed
commercial  properties in the U.S. Virgin Islands and in other Caribbean markets
that  meet the  Company's  investment  criteria,  and by  diversifying  into the
consumer  financial  services  field through the  acquisition  or development of
businesses offering select consumer financial services. The strengthening of the
U.S.  Virgin Islands economy and the continued  growth in the various  Caribbean
markets as a result  primarily of tourism will  continue to enhance the economic
well-being of the resident  population.  The Company's business strategy,  which
has been  successful in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands,  is to focus primarily on the
region's resident  population and provide  commercial real estate locations that
allow  businesses to reach the local  consumer.  The Company's  initiative  into
financial  services  follows the same  premise--to  serve the  growing  consumer
financial services needs of the resident population.


     Lockhart is one of the oldest continuous operators of commercial properties
in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands.  Through the years,  the  Company has  assembled a
unique collection of commercial  properties that cater to tourists and serve the
local  community.  Lockhart  intends to expand and diversify its Virgin  Islands
presence by acquiring  properties  within other submarkets on St. Thomas and St.
Croix.  The Company's  business  strategy and economic model also will result in
consideration of expansion in select

                                       47

<PAGE>

tourist and local community  submarkets  throughout the eastern  Caribbean.  The
Company  believes that its Caribbean  base,  its knowledge of the region and its
long-standing  relationships with tenants, real estate professionals,  financial
institutions  and other  sectors  of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands  community  offer
significant  competitive  advantages in seeking investment  opportunities in the
U.S. Virgin Islands and elsewhere in the Caribbean region.


     The Company  believes  that  diversification  into the  financial  services
industry  is a  logical  extension  of its  operations  in light  of  Lockhart's
history,  the  backgrounds  of the members of the Executive  Committee,  and the
Company's  recognition  of market  opportunities.  The  founder of the  Company,
Alfred H.  Lockhart,  also founded a bank in the Virgin Islands (then the Danish
West  Indies),  and he,  his son and his  grandson  each  served on the board of
directors  of that bank and its  successors  until its merger  into a  federally
chartered U.S. bank. Separately,  the Company has established relationships with
financial  service  providers  in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands and  throughout  the
Caribbean that has resulted in the identification of business opportunities that
remain  untapped  by  existing  businesses  offering  financial  services in the
targeted markets.  In addition,  the members of the Executive  Committee (George
H.T. Dudley, Wesley S. Williams,  Jr. and John P. deJongh, Jr.) and Richard E.W.
Grant,  the  president  of the soon to be  acquired  PFC,  each  have  extensive
experience in the  financial  services  industry.  See  "{{Management  Executive
Officers and Directors}}".  These factors should allow the Company to capitalize
on the growth  opportunities in the  non-banking,  consumer  financial  services
field in the Caribbean.

     For example,  the Company believes that significant  opportunities exist in
the insurance premium finance business.  Insurance premiums in the Caribbean are
significantly  higher  than  premiums  charged  for  comparable  coverage in the
continental  United States.  Homeowners  insurance  premiums  currently  average
approximately  $2.50 per one  hundred  dollars of  coverage  in the U.S.  Virgin
Islands, compared to $0.90 per one hundred dollars of coverage in Florida. These
high annual  premiums  create a demand for  short-term  financing that banks and
other financial  intermediaries generally do not offer. Thus, as a first step in
the Company's  diversification into the financial services industry, the Company
is acquiring PFC and its wholly owned subsidiary.  See "{{Acquisition of PFC}}".
Lockhart's intent is to proceed  aggressively on the Caribbean  expansion of PFC
with a focus on  individuals  and smaller  commercial  businesses and to build a
Caribbean network and relations with commercial banks.


     Internal Growth

     The Company believes that significant  opportunities exist to increase cash
flow from its existing  real  property  portfolio  because they are high quality
properties in desirable submarkets, and that such opportunities will be enhanced
as the U.S. Virgin Islands economy continues to grow. The Company's strategy for
maximizing the benefits from these  opportunities  include:  (i) maintaining and
improving  occupancy rates through pro active management and aggressive leasing;
(ii)  realizing  fixed  contractual  base rental  increases or increases tied to
indices;  (iii) passing through to tenants certain  reimbursable  expense items;
(iv)  capitalizing  on economies of scale  arising from the size of the property
portfolio;  (v) selectively  developing its commercial real estate holdings; and
(vi)  developing its residential  property  inventory to cater to the continuing
demand for home ownership.

     Maintaining and Improving Occupancy Rates. The Company believes that it has
been successful in attracting,  expanding and retaining a diverse tenant base by
actively  managing  its  properties  with an  emphasis on tenant  retention  and
satisfaction.  The Company  utilizes its market  position and its  relationships
with a broad array of real estate  professionals  and tenants to  implement  its
leasing efforts and to monitor and understand the current and future space needs
of retail and office tenants in various  submarkets.  This constant contact with
the local market enables the Company to attract and place tenants throughout its
properties, thereby improving the Company's penetration in the tenant community.
The Company believes that the breadth of its submarket presence provides it with
an advantage to  successfully  compete for tenants by offering a wide variety of
space and  location  alternatives  both to  prospective  tenants and to existing
tenants whose facility requirements change over time.

                                       48

<PAGE>

     Contractual  Base Rental Increase.  The Company's  standard lease agreement
contains either fixed contractual  rental increases in the tenant's base rent or
increases which are tied to indices,  such as the Consumer Price Index.  Between
January 1, 1995 and December 31, 1996, the contractual  annual base rents at the
Company's  operating  properties  increased  by an  aggregate  of  approximately
$126,873 due to such increases.

     Pass-through of Certain  Operating Costs. In the execution of all new lease
agreements,  the  Company  implemented  a policy of  passing  through to tenants
certain common area maintenance charges applicable to the commercial development
in  which  they  rent.  The  expense   charged  to  each  tenant  is  determined
proportionately based on the percentage of the gross square footage specifically
occupied by the  tenant.  Approximately  47% of the  Company's  existing  leases
contain such expense pass-through provisions.

     Capitalizing  on Economies of Scale.  The size of the  Company's  portfolio
permits the Company to enhance its portfolio  value by lowering  operating costs
and expenses  incrementally.  The Company  seeks to  capitalize  on economies of
scale  resulting from the  maintenance  of  centralized  accounting and property
management systems, which spreads administrative costs over all of the operating
properties,  thereby reducing the per square foot  administrative  expense.  The
Company  also  strives  to  minimize  overhead  by  controlling   corporate  and
administrative expenses and assigning  responsibility for multiple properties to
its centralized maintenance staff. Acquisition,  management, leasing, renovation
and development  activities are coordinated to enhance  responsiveness to market
opportunities  and tenant needs. The facilities  manager ensures that renovation
and maintenance work is done in a timely manner.  The property manager interacts
with the Company's  tenants,  responds to tenant needs,  supervises  leasing and
marketing  activities,  and  works  closely  with  the  development  manager  in
identifying and initiating  market  opportunities on undeveloped  properties and
within  operating  properties.  This integrated  approach permits the Company to
analyze  the  economic  terms  and  costs   (including   tenant   build-out  and
retrofitting costs) for each lease on a timely and efficient basis. With respect
to the development  manager,  the Company has the in-house capability to analyze
submarket  opportunities  to ensure  that a  property  under  consideration  for
acquisition is fundamentally sound in terms of its structure, access and further
development  potential.   In  the  context  of  the  Company's  own  development
activities,  site analysis,  preliminary design development and  conceptualizing
proposed responses to the specific requests of potential tenants are all handled
in-house by the development manager.  With respect to acquisitions,  the Company
can analyze quickly the costs of upgrades and lease-up potential. The Company is
able to commit to leasing and acquisition terms quickly,  facilitate timely deal
execution and build-out of space for prospective  tenants and minimize  downtime
between lease rollovers.

     Commercial  Property  Development.  The  Company is actively  planning  and
executing  the  development  of its  commercial  property  holdings  and has six
projects  scheduled  to  be  completed  by  the  end  of  1999.  See  Properties
Development   Projects".   Several  of  the  Company's   projects  offer  future
development  opportunities.  For example, the Market Square East Phase I project
is only a five acre first phase of development  for the planned  commercial park
that  ultimately will consist of  approximately  50 acres.  Although  additional
development  at Market  Square East cannot be  assured,  the Company  already is
seeking suitable tenants for subsequent phases.


     Residential Property Development.  The Company owns approximately 415 acres
of undeveloped  land on St. Thomas which is zoned for residential use at various
density  levels.  The Company  intends to  selectively  develop its  undeveloped
residential   property   portfolio  by  working  with  experienced   residential
developers to design and construct  single-family  and multi-family  residential
developments.  In some  developments,  Lockhart  will limit its  involvement  to
providing  the  infrastructure  (such  as  roads,   utilities  and  sewers)  and
subdividing  the  property  for sale as  residential  lots for  construction  by
others.  Lockhart also may develop  neighborhood  retail  commercial  centers to
support such residential  communities,  when appropriate.  See "--{{Properties--
Undeveloped Property}}".

Investing and Financing Policies

     The  following is a discussion of certain  investment,  financing and other
policies of the Company.  These  policies have been  determined by the Company's
Board of Directors  and may be amended or revised from time to time by the Board
of Directors without a vote of the stockholders.

     Investment Policies


     The  Company's   investment  objective  is  to  achieve  long-term  capital
appreciation  through  increases in the Company's  value. The Company expects to
pursue its investment  objective  through  ownership of and  improvements to its
operating properties, by developing, leasing or selling its undeveloped property
to maximize each parcel's  potential,  to selectively  acquire other real estate
properties, and to develop or acquire stategically positioned financial services
related  businesses.  The  Company  currently  intends  to invest in or  develop
retail,  office or commercial  properties in the U.S. Virgin  Islands.  However,
future  investment  or  development  activities  will  not  be  limited  to  any
geographic  area or product type or to a specified  percentage  of the Company's
assets.  While the Company intends to diversify in terms of property  locations,
size and market as well as line-of-business, the Company does not have any limit
on the  amount or  percentage  of its  assets  that may be  invested  in any one
property,  business or geographic area. In addition, the Company may purchase or
lease  income-producing  commercial  and other types of properties for long-term
investment,  expand  and  improve  the  real  estate  presently  owned  or other
properties purchased, or sell such real estate properties,  in whole or in part,
when circumstances warrant.


     The Company may also participate with third parties in property development
or  ownership,  through  joint  ventures  or other types of  co-ownership.  Such
investments  may permit the Company to own  interests in larger  assets  without
unduly  restricting   diversification   and,   therefore,   add  flexibility  in
structuring its portfolio.

     Equity  investments may be subject to existing mortgage financing and other
indebtedness  or such financing or indebtedness as may be incurred in connection
with acquiring or refinancing these investments.  Debt service on such financing
or indebtedness will have a priority over any distributions  with respect to the
Common Stock.  Investments  are also subject to the  Company's  policy not to be
treated as an investment  company under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as
amended.

     While the Company's  current  portfolio  consists of equity  investments in
commercial  real  estate,  the Company  may, in the  discretion  of the Board of
Directors,  invest in mortgages and other types of equity real estate interests.
The Company does not presently  intend to invest in mortgages or deeds of trust,
but  may  invest  in  participating  or  convertible  mortgages  if the  Company
concludes that it may benefit from the cash flow or any appreciation in value of
the property. Investments in real estate mortgages run the risk that one or more
borrowers may default under such mortgages and that the collateral securing such
mortgages  may not be  sufficient  to enable  the  Company  to  recoup  its full
investment.

     The Company also may invest in securities of other entities engaged in real
estate  activities or securities of other issuers,  including for the purpose of
exercising control over such entities.

     The Company does not  currently  intend to dispose of any of the  operating
properties,  although it reserves the right to do so if, based upon management's
periodic review of the Company's  portfolio,  the Board of Directors  determines
that such action would be in the best interests of the Company.  Any decision to
dispose of an operating  property  will be made by the Company and approved by a
majority of the Board of Directors.

                                       50

<PAGE>

     Financing Policies


     As a general  policy,  the  Company  will  incur  indebtedness  only if the
operating property or project will generate  sufficient cash flow to service the
related debt.  The Company may from time to time modify its debt policy in light
of current  economic  conditions,  relative  costs of debt and  equity  capital,
market values of its properties,  general  conditions in the market for debt and
equity securities,  growth and acquisition  opportunities and other factors.  If
the Company's  policy with respect to  indebtedness  were  changed,  the Company
could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increased risk of default on
its obligations and a related increase in debt service  requirements  that could
adversely  affect the  financial  condition  and  results of  operations  of the
Company. See "{{Risk Factors--No Limitations on Debt}}."


     The  Company  has not  established  any  limit on the  number  or amount of
mortgages  that may be placed on any single  property or on its  portfolio  as a
whole.

     Policies With Respect to Other Activities


     The Company has authority to offer Common Stock, Preferred Stock or options
to purchase  stock in exchange  for  property  and to  repurchase  or  otherwise
acquire its Common Stock or other  securities  in the open market or  otherwise,
and may engage in such  activities  in the  future.  The  Company has not issued
Common  Stock or any other  securities  in  exchange  for  property or any other
purpose. The Company may issue Preferred Stock from time to time, in one or more
series, as authorized by the Board of Directors without the need for stockholder

Environmental Considerations

     Under various federal and local  environmental laws, rules and regulations,
a current or  previous  owner or  operator  of real  estate may be  required  to
investigate  and clean up  hazardous or toxic  substance  or  petroleum  product
releases on its property and may be liable to a governmental  entity or to third
parties for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by
such parties in connection with the  contamination.  Such laws typically  impose
clean-up  responsibility  and liability without regard to whether the owner knew
of or caused the presence of the contaminants, and the liability under such laws
has been  interpreted  to be joint and several  unless the harm is divisible and
there is a  reasonable  basis for  allocation  of  responsibility.  The costs of
investigation, remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial, and
the  presence  of such  substances,  or the failure to  properly  remediate  the
contamination on such property, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell
or rent such  property or to borrow using such property as  collateral.  Persons
who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic  substances at a
disposal or  treatment  facility  also may be liable for the costs of removal or
remediation  of a release of hazardous or toxic  substances  at such disposal or
treatment  facility,  whether or not such  facility is owned or operated by such
person. In addition,  some  environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated
site in favor of the  government  for damages and costs  incurred in  connection
with the  contamination.  Finally,  the owner of a site may be subject to common
law  claims  by  third  parties  based  on  damages  and  costs  resulting  from
environmental contamination emanating from such site.

     The Fort Mylner  properties,  acquired by the Company in June 1996, include
land where a gas station had been  located.  The gas station no longer exists at
the site, and its underground storage tanks have been removed. The seller of the
Fort Mylner properties provided the Company with previously commissioned reports
indicating  that any  contaminated  soil had been  removed and no  contamination
remained at the site. The Company has no reason to believe that any of the other
properties  acquired  as part of this  acquisition  required  any  environmental
assessment.  The Company has not  undertaken  or been  required to undertake any
environmental assessment reports for any of its other properties.

     The Company  believes that the properties are in compliance in all material
respects  with all  federal  and local  laws,  rules and  regulations  regarding
hazardous or toxic  substances or petroleum  products.  The Company has not been
notified  by a  governmental  authority,  and is  not  otherwise  aware,  of any
material  noncompliance,  liability  or claim  relating  to  hazardous  or toxic
substances or petroleum products in connection with any of its properties.

Employees


     As of September  30,  1997,  the Company had a total of 17  employees.  PFC
currently has four employees,  whom the Company  intends to retain.  None of the
Company's or PFC's  employees  are  represented  by a labor  union.  The Company
considers its relationships with its employees to be good.


Litigation

     There are no legal proceedings to which the Company is a party,  other than
routine  litigation  incidental  to the  business of the  Company,  which is not
otherwise material to the business or financial condition of the Company.

     Long-Term  Incentive  Plan and will no  longer be paid in shares of Class B
     Common Stock.

(2)  The amount  reported for Mr. deJongh and Mr.  Bertrand  include $13,200 and
     $14,400 for a housing allowance, respectively. The Company has not included
     in  the  Summary  Compensation  Table  the  value  of  incidental  personal
     perquisites furnished by the Company to the other Named Executive Officers,
     since  such  value did not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 10% of the total
     of annual salary and bonus reported for such Named Executive Officers.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

     Lockhart has adopted The Lockhart Caribbean Corporation Long-Term Incentive
Plan (the "LTIP"). Pursuant to the LTIP, officers, selected employees (including
employees who are also directors) and independent directors of Lockhart who have
been selected as participants are eligible to receive awards of various forms of
equity-based incentive compensation, including stock options, stock appreciation
rights,

                                       58

<PAGE>

stock bonuses, restricted stock awards, performance units and phantom stock, and
awards  consisting of  combinations  of such  incentives.  Lockhart has reserved
1,000,000 shares of Lockhart Class A Common Stock for issuance under the LTIP.

     Subject to the maximum  shares  reserved  under the LTIP, no individual may
receive a stock option  covering  more than 100,000  shares of Lockhart  Class A
Common  Stock in any year or be granted  more than  100,000  shares of  Lockhart
Class A Common Stock, in any combination of performance awards, restricted stock
or other  stock-based  awards  that are subject to  performance  criteria in any
year.

     The LTIP is to be administered by the Executive  Personnel and Compensation
Committee  (the  "Committee").  Subject  to  the  provisions  of the  LTIP,  the
Committee  has  sole  discretionary  authority  to  interpret  the  LTIP  and to
determine the type of awards to grant, when, if, and to whom awards are granted,
the number of shares  covered by each award and the terms and  conditions of the
award.

     Options granted under the LTIP may be "Incentive  Stock Options"  ("ISOs"),
within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code,  or  Nonqualified  Stock  Options
("NQSOs"). The exercise price of the options will be determined by the Committee
when the  options  are  granted,  subject to a minimum  price of the Fair Market
Value (as defined in the LTIP) of the Class A Common  Stock on the date of grant
in the case of ISOs and a minimum  price of 85% of the Fair Market  value on the
date of grant in the case of NQSOs.  In the  discretion  of the  Committee,  the
option  exercise  price may be paid in cash or in shares of Class A Common Stock
having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the option  exercise
price,  or by delivering  to Lockhart a copy of  irrevocable  instructions  to a
stockbroker  to  deliver  promptly  to  Lockhart  an amount of sale or  proceeds
sufficient  to pay the exercise  price.  There is no current  intention to grant
ISOs to any LTIP participant.

     The LTIP permits the  Committee to grant Class A Common Stock  appreciation
rights  ("SARs").  An SAR granted as an alternative or a supplement to a related
stock  option  will  entitle  its holder to be paid an amount  equal to the Fair
Market  Value of the  Class A  Common  Stock  subject  to the SAR on the date of
exercise of the SAR less the exercise price of the related stock option, or such
other price as the Committee may determine under the LTIP for such stock option.
There is no current intention to grant SARs to any LTIP participant.

     The Committee may grant awards of stock as restricted stock, bonus stock or
deferred  stock.  Shares of Class A Common Stock  covered by a restricted  stock
award will be issued to the  recipient at the time the award is granted but will
be  subject  to  forfeiture  in the  event  continued  employment  and/or  other
conditions established by the Committee at the time the award is granted are not
satisfied. There is no current intention to grant restricted stock awards to any
LTIP participant.

     A performance  award or a deferred  stock award will provide for the future
payment  of cash or the  issuance  of  shares  of  Class A  Common  Stock to the
recipient if continued employment or other performance objectives established by
the Committee at the time of grant are attained.  There is no current  intention
to grant performance awards or deferred stock awards to any LTIP participant.

     The  performance  objectives  that must be  attained  to receive  any award
subject to performance  criteria shall be selected by the Committee and shall be
based on preestablished  amounts of annual net income,  operating  income,  cash
flow, return on assets, return on equity, return on capital or total stockholder
return.  There are currently no such other written  criteria  established by the
Committee.

                                       59

<PAGE>

     Dividend  equivalents  may be granted  that  provide for current or accrued
value of dividends  that may be paid in the future.  Such  dividend  equivalents
shall be paid or  distributed  when  accrued  or shall be  deemed  to have  been
reinvested in additional shares or awards, or otherwise reinvested.  There is no
current intention to grant dividend  equivalents to any LTIP participant.  Stock
bonus  awards,  restricted  stock  awards and  performance  awards  may,  in the
discretion of the Committee, be settled in cash, on each date on which shares of
Class A Common Stock covered by the awards would  otherwise  have been delivered
or become  unrestricted,  in an amount  equal to the Fair  Market  Value of such
shares on such date.

     The LTIP may be amended,  suspended or terminated by the Lockhart  Board in
whole or in part at any time;  provided  that no such  amendment,  suspension or
termination of the LTIP may adversely affect the rights of or obligations to the
participants  without  such  participants'  consent,  and  any  such  amendment,
suspension  or  termination  will  be  subject  to the  approval  of  Lockhart's
stockholders to the extent required by any federal or state law or regulation of
any stock exchange on which Class A Common Stock is listed.

executive officers or directors.  In any event, all future loans and advances to
such persons will be for a bona fide business purpose and approved by a majority
of  the  disinterested   directors  of  the  Company.   In  addition,   material
transactions   with  the  Company's   executive   officers,   directors  and  5%
stockholders  will be on  terms no less  favorable  than  can be  obtained  from
unaffiliated third parties. See "Business--Investing and Financing Policies".

     Richard  E.W.  Grant,   President  of  PFC,  is  the  beneficial  owner  of
approximately  29,250  shares  of the  Company's  Class B  Common  Stock,  which

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION


     The Company is offering up to 2,000,000  Units at a purchase price of $6.50
per  Unit.  Each  Unit  consists  of one  share of Class A Common  Stock and one
Warrant.  Each Warrant is  exercisable  for a period of five years beginning one
year from the date of this  Prospectus  and  entitles  the  holder  to  purchase
one-tenth  of one share of Class A Common  Stock for $9.75 per share.  The Units
will be sold on a "best efforts,  all or none" basis with respect to the Minimum
Offering and on a "best  efforts" basis as to the remaining  846,154 Units.  The
Minimum Offering must be sold, if any Units are to be sold, within one year from
the date of this Prospectus. Shares of Class A Common Stock and the Warrants may
be transferred separately after their issuance.


     It is the  intention  of the  Company  to  offer  and  sell  the  Units  by
contacting  prospective  investors through appropriate  Internet,  newspaper and
magazine  advertisements  and  electronic  copies  of  this  Prospectus  will be
available  to  prospective  investors  through  the  Internet.  Copies  of  this
Prospectus,  including  appendices,  are  available  on the  World  Wide  Web at
http://lockhart.com, and can also be obtained by contacting the Company at (340)
776-1900.  Units may be offered by the  Company's  officers  or  directors  on a
selective  basis,  and any such offers and sales,  as well as the  processing of
Subscription Agreements,  will comply with Rule 3a4-1 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended.  This  offering is not  currently  open to residents of
Alabama,  Alaska, Arizona,  Arkansas,  Florida,  Idaho, Illinois,  Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky,  Louisiana,  Maine,  Maryland,  Massachusetts,   Michigan,  Minnesota,
Mississippi,  Missouri,  Montana,  Nebraska,  New Hampshire,  New Jersey,  North
Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee,
Texas, Utah, Vermont,  Washington,  West Virginia,  Wisconsin and Wyoming, or of
any  country  other than the United  States and its  territories.  Subscriptions
received  from  residents of any such state or foreign  country will be promptly
returned by the Company; provided, however, that if there is sufficient interest
from one or more of such states,  the Company may proceed with  registration  or
qualification  in such state or states.  In addition,  the Company  reserves the
right to offer and sell the Units on a  limited  basis in one or more  states or
foreign  countries where an exemption from registration or qualification in such
state or foreign country is available.

     No  securities  are to be offered for the account of any existing  security
holder.

     Subscribers must execute a Subscription Agreement, which is attached hereto
as Appendix A. The minimum  purchase is 100 Units.  The Company will review each
Subscription  Agreement to assure  completeness and compliance with the terms of
this offer,  return  rejected  subscriptions  to the prospective  investor,  and
confirm  accepted  subscriptions.  The Company  reserves the right to reject any
subscription  for Units in its entirety or to allocate  units among  prospective
purchasers.  In this  regard,  the  Company  intends to apply for listing of the
Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq  SmallCap  Market if the Minimum  Offering is
sold. One of the listing criteria for the Nasdaq SmallCap Market is a minimum of
300 stockholders.  Therefore,  although there is no prescribed maximum number of
Units which can be purchased by a single  subscriber,  the Company may partially
reject certain  subscriptions to ensure that there are at least 300 stockholders
when the Minimum Offering is sold. If any subscription is rejected,  in whole or
in part,  funds  representing  the portion of the  subscription  rejected by the
Company will be returned to the applicable prospective purchaser with interest.


                                       63

<PAGE>


     All funds received with respect to the Minimum Offering,  will be deposited
in an escrow account with The Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase"), in its capacity as
Escrow Agent,  pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement entered into between
the Company,  Chase and ACS  Financial & Securities  Services  ("ACS").  ACS has
agreed to collect  subscriptions  and forward them to the Company for processing
and to provide certain record-keeping  functions for this offering. In the event
that the Minimum Offering is not sold within the permitted time period, then all
funds received by Chase will be refunded  promptly to the subscribers,  in full,
with interest.

     Certificates  representing  shares of Class A Common Stock and certificates
representing  Warrants  purchased  will  be  issued  to  purchasers  only if the
proceeds from the sale of the Minimum  Offering are released from escrow.  Until
the  certificates  representing  shares of Class A Common Stock are delivered to
the purchasers  thereof,  such  purchasers,  if any, will be deemed  subscribers
only, and not stockholders. Warrant certificates will not entitle holders to any
rights as a stockholder of the Company. The funds in escrow will be held for the
benefit of those subscribers  until released to the Company.  All funds received
after the  Minimum  Offering  is sold will not be placed in escrow,  but will be
sent directly to the Company for immediate use by the Company.

     Prior to this  offering,  there has been no public  market  for the Class A
Common Stock.  The initial public  offering price was determined by the Company.
In determining  the initial public  offering price for the Class A Common Stock,
the  Company  calculated  the net asset  value of  Lockhart on a per share basis
using the most recent appraisals  available for each operating  property and for
its  inventory of  undeveloped  land. As part of this  calculation,  the Company
adjusted its capital structure for the Maximum Offering. No value was attributed
to the Warrants.


     The Company  considered  adjusted  net asset value per share in relation to
the market valuation of publicly-held  companies in similar  businesses.  Unlike
such  companies,  whose market value  commonly  exceeds net asset value based on
their property holdings, Lockhart in this, its initial public offering, believed
it prudent  to  approach  the  pricing of its  securities  more  conservatively.
Accordingly, the Company has set the offering price for the Class A Common Stock
based  solely  on the net  asset  value  of its  real  estate,  with  no  upward
adjustment  for other common  indicia of value,  such as (i) estimates of future
business  potential  and  earnings  prospects  -- in  this  case,  based  on the
Company's  historic  businesses  together  with that of PFC after  achieving the
Minimum Offering -- (ii) the increasing value of the Company's real estate based
on development projects in progress, and (iii) Lockhart's more than century-long
existence.


     Although it is the  Company's  intention to develop a public market for its
Class A  Common  Stock  by  soliciting  broker-dealers  who are  members  of the
National  Association of Securities Dealers (the "NASD") to make a market in the
Company's  Class A Common  Stock,  to date the Company has not entered  into any
arrangements, commitments or understandings with any persons with respect to the
creation of a public market for its Class A Common  Stock.  The Company plans to
seek the support of NASD member firms which are  recognized  market  makers with
the intention of obtaining their assistance with the creation of a viable market
in the Company's securities for the benefit of its stockholders.  If the Minimum
Offering  is sold,  the  Company  intends  to apply for  listing  on the  Nasdaq
SmallCap  Market.  However,  there can be no assurance  that the Company will be
accepted for listing if it applies.

                          DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

     The Company has the authority to issue  49,000,000  shares of common stock,
par value $0.01 per share,  of which  40,000,000  shares are designated  Class A
Common Stock (the "Class A Common  Stock") and 9,000,000  shares are  designated
Class B Common  Stock,  par value $0.01 per share (the "Class B Common  Stock").
The Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock are sometimes  referred to
collectively  as the "Common  Stock".  The Company is also  authorized  to issue
1,000,000  shares of Preferred  Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Preferred
Stock").

Common Stock


     Except as otherwise  set forth below or as  otherwise  required by law, the
rights  and  privileges  of each  class of the  Common  Stock are  substantially
identical  in all  material  respects,  including  the right of the members of a
class of  Common  Stock to  participate  ratably  in offers  by the  Company  to
repurchase shares of Common Stock that are directed to all of the holders of any
other class of the Common Stock. No class of Common Stock has preemptive rights.


     Voting Rights

     Each outstanding  share of Class A Common Stock is entitled to vote on each
matter on which the  stockholders  of the Company are entitled to vote, and each
holder of Class A Common  Stock is  entitled  to one vote for each share of such
stock held by such  holder.  Each  outstanding  share of Class B Common Stock is
entitled  to vote on each  matter on which the  stockholders  of the Company are
entitled  to vote,  and each  holder of Class B Common  Stock is entitled to ten
votes for each share of such stock held by such holder; provided,  however, that
if the aggregate number of shares of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding
no longer  represent  at least  75% of the  combined  voting  power of the total
issued  and  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock,  then each  holder of Class B
Common  Stock  shall be  entitled  to one vote for each  share of Class B Common
Stock.  The  holders of the Common  Stock  entitled  to vote on any matter  vote
together as a single class on all such matters.  The stockholders of the Company
are not entitled to cumulate their votes in any election of the directors of the
Company.

     Distributions


     The Board of Directors of the Company may cause distributions to be paid to
holders of shares of Common Stock out of funds legally available for the payment
of distributions, provided, however, that the Board of Directors may declare the
payment  of cash  distributions  of up to $.0425  per annum per share of Class B
Common Stock to the holders of Class B Common Stock without  declaring or paying
any  distributions  on Class A Common Stock. The right of the Board of Directors
to  declare a separate  distribution  payable  only on the Class B Common  Stock
shall cease once the Board of Directors shall declare a distribution  payable to
both  classes  of Common  Stock.  See  "Distribution  Policy".  Thereafter,  any
distribution  on the Common  Stock  shall be payable on shares of Class A Common
Stock and Class B Common Stock share and share alike;  provided that in the case
of distributions  payable in shares of Common Stock of the Company,  or options,
warrants  or  rights  to  acquire  shares  of such  Common  Stock or  securities
convertible  into or exchangeable  for shares of such Common Stock,  the shares,
options,  warrants,  rights or  securities so payable shall be payable in shares

exchangeable for, Class A Common Stock.

     Liquidation Rights


     In the event of any  dissolution,  liquidation or winding up of the affairs
of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment or provision for
payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Company,  the remaining assets
and funds of the Company, if any, shall be divided among and paid ratably to the
holders  of Class A  Common  Stock  and the  holders  of  Class B  Common  Stock
provided,  however,  that so long as distributions are not being paid on Class A
Common  Stock,  the  holders  of  Class A Common  Stock  shall  be  entitled  to
preferential  rights in the event of  liquidation,  dissolution or winding up of
the Company with each holder of Class A Common Stock  entitled to receive  $6.50
per share  before any sum shall be paid to or any assets  distributed  among the
holders of Class B Common Stock. A merger or  consolidation  of the Company with
or into any other  corporation or a sale or conveyance of all or any part of the
assets of the Company (which shall not in fact result in the  liquidation of the
Company and the distribution of assets to  stockholders)  shall not be deemed to
be a voluntary or  involuntary  liquidation  or dissolution or winding up of the
Company.


     Conversion Rights

     Each and every share of Class B Common  Stock is  convertible  into Class A
Common Stock at any time at the option of the holder.  Such conversion  shall be
on a share-for-share  basis, one share of Class A Common Stock for each share of
Class B Common  Stock so  converted.  Shares  of  Class A Common  Stock  are not
convertible.


     Each share of Class B Common  Stock shall  convert  automatically  into one
fully  paid and  non-assessable  share of Class A Common  Stock  upon its  sale,
assignment,  gift or other  transfer to a party or entity other than a Permitted
Transferee.  A "Permitted Transferee" of a Class B Stockholder shall be: (i) any
lineal  descendant of Alfred H. Lockhart and Herbert E. Lockhart  (including any
adopted child);  (ii) any individual  designated as a Permitted  Transferee by a
vote  of the  Board  of  Directors  upon  the  recommendation  of the  Executive
Committee of the Board of Directors;  (iii) any lineal descendant (including any
adopted  child) of a previously  admitted Class B Stockholder  (the  individuals
described in (i),  (ii) and (iii)  hereafter are  individually  referred to as a
"Founding Family Member" and collectively the "Founding Family  Members");  (iv)
any trust established and maintained  principally for the benefit of one or more
Founding  Family  Members and where one or more  Founding  Family  Members has a
general  or  special  testamentary  power of  appointment  or general or special
non-testamentary  power of  appointment  limited to any Permitted  Transferee or
Permitted  Transferees  thereof;  (v)  any  corporation,   partnership,  limited
liability company,  limited liability  partnership,  private foundation or other
entity where (A) the majority of the board of directors or other  managing  body
are comprised of Founding Family Members or (B) all the beneficial ownership, or
ownership of equity securities of such entity  representing  voting control over
such entity, is held by Founding Family Members and/or any Permitted  Transferee
or Permitted Transferees thereof; provided, however, that if (x) the majority of
the  board  of the  directors  of other  managing  body of such  entity  are not
comprised of Founding  Family  Members and (y) the Class B stockholder  who made
such transfer, and Permitted Transferees thereof, cease, for whatever reason, to
hold  all of  the  beneficial  ownership,  or  ownership  of  equity  securities
representing voting control, of such corporation, partnership, limited liability
company, limited liability partnership, private foundation or other entity, then
any and  all  shares  of  Class  B  Common  Stock  owned  by  such  corporation,
partnership,  limited liability company, limited liability partnership,  private
foundation  or other entity shall be converted  automatically,  without  further
action by or on behalf of any person,  into  shares of Class A Common  Stock and
such  corporation,  partnership,  limited liability  company,  limited liability
partnership,  private  foundation  or other  entity shall no longer be a Class B
Stockholder.


                                       66

<PAGE>

     Any Class B Stockholder  may pledge shares of Class B Common Stock owned by
such  person  to a pledgee  pursuant  to a bona  fide  pledge of such  shares as
collateral  security for  indebtedness  due to the pledgee,  provided  that such
shares may not be transferred to or registered in the name of the pledgee unless
such pledgee is a Permitted  Transferee.  In the event of  foreclosure  or other
similar  action  by the  pledgee  (other  than  a  pledgee  who  is a  Permitted
Transferee),  such  pledged  shares of Class B Common  Stock shall be  converted
automatically, without further action by or on behalf of any person, into shares
of Class A Common Stock upon such foreclosure; provided, however, that if within
ten business days after such  foreclosure or similar event such converted shares
are  returned to the pledgor or  transferred  to a Permitted  Transferee  of the
pledgor, such shares shall be converted  automatically,  without any act or deed
on the part of the Company or any other  person,  into the same number of shares
of Class B Common Stock. The foregoing automatic conversion provisions shall not
be  applicable to any transfer of shares of Class B Common Stock by operation of
law  upon  incompetence,  death,  dissolution  or  bankruptcy  of  any  Class  B
Stockholder to an executor, guardian or trustee,  respectively,  of such Class B
Stockholder but only if the beneficial  ownership of such shares continues to be
held by one or more Permitted Transferees.

     Mergers and Consolidations

     In the event of a merger,  consolidation  or other business  combination of
the  Company  with or into  another  entity  (whether  or not the Company is the
surviving entity), or in the event of the dissolution of the Company,  provision
shall be made so that the holders of each class of Common Stock will be entitled
to receive the same amount and form of consideration  per share as the per share
consideration,  if any, received by holders of the other classes of Common Stock
in such merger,  consolidation,  combination or dissolution;  provided, however,
that in connection with any such merger,  consolidation or business  combination
in which shares of capital stock are  distributed,  such shares may differ as to
voting rights to the extent and only to the extent that the voting rights of the
Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock differ as currently provided;  and
provided further,  however,  that if such shares differ as to voting rights, the
shares having superior  voting rights shall be subject to conversion  provisions
that are no more or less  favorable  to the  holders of such  shares  than those
provided with respect to the Class B Common Stock.

Preferred Stock

     None of the Company's  1,000,000  shares of authorized  Preferred  Stock is
outstanding.  The  Company's  Amended and  Restated  Articles  of  Incorporation
authorize   the  Board  of  Directors,   without  any  further   action  by  the
stockholders,  to issue the Preferred Stock in one or more series,  to establish
from time to time the number of shares to be  included in each series and to fix
the  designations,  powers,  preferences and rights of the shares of each series
and the  qualifications,  limitations  or  restrictions  thereof.  Although  the
ability of the Board of Directors to designate and issue shares of the Preferred
Stock provides desirable flexibility,  including the ability to engage in future
public  offerings  to raise  additional  capital,  the issuance of shares of the
Preferred  Stock may have  adverse  effects  on the  holders  of  Common  Stock,
including  restrictions  on dividends on the Common Stock if dividends on shares
of the  Preferred  Stock have not been  paid;  dilution  of voting  power of the
Common Stock to the extent the shares of the Preferred Stock have voting rights;
or deferral of  participation  in the Company's  assets upon  liquidation  until
satisfaction of any liquidation  preference  granted to holders of shares of the
Preferred  Stock.  In addition,  issuance of shares of the Preferred Stock could
make  it  more  difficult  for a  third  party  to  acquire  a  majority  of the
outstanding  voting  stock  and  accordingly  may be used as an  "anti-takeover"
device.  The Board of Directors,  however,  currently does not  contemplate  the
issuance of any shares of the Preferred Stock.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions

     Special  meetings of  stockholders  may be called by the Company's Board of
Directors  or the  Executive  Committee.  Except as  otherwise  required by law,
stockholders,  in their  capacity as such, are not entitled to request or call a
special meeting of  stockholders.  In addition,  stockholders of the Company are
required to provide  advance  notice of  nominations of directors to be made at,
and of business  proposed to be brought before, a meeting of  stockholders.  The
failure to deliver  proper notice within the periods  specified in the Company's
Amended and Restated  Bylaws will result in the denial to the stockholder of the
right to make such nominations or propose such action at the meeting.

Summary of the Reinvestment Plan

     The  Company  has  adopted  the  Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation  Dividend
Reinvestment Plan (the "Reinvestment  Plan") pursuant to which holders of Common
Stock may elect to have up to the full amount of any cash distributions from the
Company  reinvested in additional shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company.
Since no cash  distributions will initially be paid to holders of Class A Common
Stock, the Reinvestment  Plan is not currently open to holders of Class A Common
Stock.  Prior to  commencement  of this  offering,  18 holders of Class B Common
Stock  have  elected  to  participate  in the  Reinvestment  Plan (the  "Current
Participants").  Holders  of  Class B Common  Stock  who  have  not  elected  to
participate in the Reinvestment  Plan as well as any person who becomes a holder
of Class A Common Stock through this  offering or otherwise may purchase  shares
of Class A Common Stock  through the  Reinvestment  Plan only after receipt of a
separate   prospectus   relating  solely  to  the  Reinvestment  Plan  (a  "DRIP
Prospectus").

     An independent  agent (the  "Reinvestment  Agent"),  which currently is the
Company,  will act on behalf of the participants in the  Reinvestment  Plan (the
"Participants").   Prior  to  the  time  that  the  offering   terminates,   the
Reinvestment Agent will invest all cash distributions  attributable to shares of
Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock owned by Participants in additional
shares of Class A Common  Stock of the  Company at the initial  public  offering
price per share.  Thereafter,  and until the Class A Common  Stock is listed for
trading on a national  securities  exchange or quoted on an automated  quotation
system,  the price  per  share of Class A Common  Stock  will be  determined  by
quarterly  appraisal  updates  performed by the Company based on a review of the
existing  appraisal and lease of each property,  focusing on a re-examination of
the  capitalization  rate  applied to the rental  stream to be derived from each
such property and a review of the fair market value of the Company's undeveloped
properties.  Following  consummation  of the acquisition of PFC, the fair market
value of PFC operations  will be taken into account in determining the price per
share of Class A Common Stock.

     For the years ended  December 31, 1996,  1995 and 1994,  the Company issued
4,600, 4,360 and 3,930 shares of common stock, respectively,  under its dividend
reinvestment plan to the Current  Participants.  The number of shares of Class A
Common Stock issued to the Current  Participants under the Reinvestment Plan for
the year ended December 31, 1997 is anticipated to be approximately 29,965.

     If  distributions  are paid to holders of Class A Common Stock, the Company
would anticipate filing a registration  statement  containing a DRIP Prospectus,
holders of Class B Common  Stock who have not  selected  to  participate  in the
Reinvestment Plan as well as holders of Class A Common Stock would be offered an
opportunity to become  Participants  through the DRIP Prospectus,  and shares of
Class A Common Stock would be available  to  Participants  from any shares which
the Company so  registers.  Until such time,  however,  shares of Class A Common
Stock purchased through the Reinvestment  Plan by the Current  Participants will
be "restricted"  securities withing the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act  and  may  only  be  sold in the  public  market  pursuant  to an  effective
registration  statement  under the  Securities  Act or pursuant to an applicable
exemption from registration.  For more detailed information  regarding Rule 144,
see "{{Shares Eligible For Future Sale}}".

                             DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS

     Each Warrant will entitle the holder  thereof to purchase  one-tenth of one
share of Class A Common Stock.  The exercise price for each Warrant is $9.75 per
whole  share  of Class A  Common  Stock,  and  such  Warrants  may be  exercised
beginning one year  following the date of this  Prospectus  for a period of five
years (the "Warrant Exercise Period"). The Warrants will be issued pursuant to a
Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement").  Shares of Class A Common Stock and
the Warrants  will be freely and  separately  transferable  after  issuance.  No
fractional shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued.

     In order to protect Warrant holders against dilution, the Warrant Agreement
provides that upon the occurrence of certain  events,  the exercise price of the
Warrants and the number of shares of Class A Common Stock which may be purchased
upon  the  exercise  of  Warrants  will  be  adjusted.   The  events  generating
adjustments  include  dividends  paid in  shares  of  Common  Stock,  split-ups,
combinations  and  reclassifications,  but do not  include the sale of shares of
Class A Common  Stock  at less  than the  exercise  price or cash  distributions
whether  paid out of capital  or  otherwise.  Provision  is also made to protect
against dilution in the event of merger,  consolidation or disposition of all or
substantially  all of the  Company's  assets.  Warrant  holders  do not have any
rights  of  stockholders  and in the event of a  partial  or total  liquidation,
dissolution  or  winding up of the  Company,  holders  of  Warrants  will not be
entitled to participate in a distribution of Company assets unless such Warrants
have been  exercised.  Warrants will be dated and issued in certificate  form to
purchasers  of Units,  and they may be  exercised  during the  Warrant  Exercise
Period by  completing  and  executing  the form on the back side of the  Warrant
certificate.

                         FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

     The  following  summary  of  material  federal  income  tax  considerations
regarding  the Company and the  offering is based on current law, is for general
information only and is not tax advice. This discussion does not purport to deal
with all aspects of taxation that may be relevant to particular  stockholders in
light of their personal investment or tax circumstances,  or to certain types of
stockholders  subject to special treatment under the tax laws, including without
limitation, certain financial institutions, life insurance companies, dealers in
securities or currencies, stockholders holding shares of Class A Common Stock as
part of a conversion transaction,  as part of a hedge or hedging transaction, or
as a  position  in a  straddle  for tax  purposes  or  foreign  corporations  or
partnerships  and persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States
or the U.S. Virgin Islands. In addition, the summary below does not consider the
effect of any foreign,  state, local or other tax laws that may be applicable to
stockholders.

     It is the opinion of Tucker, Flyer & Lewis ("TF&L") that the disclosure set
forth in this Section,  to the extent such  information  constitutes  matters of
law,  summaries  of legal  matters  or legal  conclusions,  is  accurate  in all
material respects. The information in this Section is based on the U.S. Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),  current,  temporary and proposed
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, the legislative history of the Code
and court decisions,  all as of the date hereof.  No assurance can be given that
future  legislation,  Treasury  Regulations  and/or  court  decisions  will  not
adversely affect existing  interpretations  thereof. Any such change could apply
retroactively to transactions preceding the date of the change.

     EACH PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER IS ADVISED TO CONSULT HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR
REGARDING THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES TO HIM OR HER OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP
AND SALE OF THE CLASS A COMMON  STOCK,  INCLUDING  THE  FEDERAL,  STATE,  LOCAL,
FOREIGN AND OTHER TAX  CONSEQUENCES OF SUCH PURCHASE,  OWNERSHIP AND SALE AND OF
POTENTIAL CHANGES IN APPLICABLE TAX LAWS.

Taxation of the Company

     Although the U.S. Virgin Islands is a taxing jurisdiction separate from the
United States, the Code has, in effect,  been adopted by the U.S. Virgin Islands
as the controlling taxing statute,  with the words "Virgin Islands"  substituted
for the words  "United  States"  where  appropriate  (commonly  referred to as a
"mirror  image").  A  corporation  organized  under the laws of the U.S.  Virgin
Islands is  generally  taxed at a 35%  marginal  rate on its  worldwide  income,
subject to  reduction by foreign tax  credits,  if available by the U.S.  Virgin
Islands.  Further,  Section 1274(b) of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 authorized the
U.S. Virgin Islands to enact non-discriminatory local income taxes. Corporations
also are generally subject to property,  gross receipts,  excise and stamp taxes
in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Taxation  of  United  States   Stockholders   (other  than  U.S.  Virgin  Island
Stockholders)


     Taxation of United States  Citizen or Resident  Alien  Stockholders

     To the extent an  individual  is a citizen or resident  alien of the United
States  (other than a bona fide  resident of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands) (a "U.S.
Individual  Stockholder")  and has  U.S.  Virgin  Islands  source  income,  such
individual  must file a complete  income tax return with both the United  States
Internal  Revenue  Service  (the "IRS") and the U.S.  Virgin  Islands  Bureau of
Internal Revenue. IRS Form 8689, which allocates a taxpayer's total income taxes
between the United States and the Virgin Islands, must also be attached. In such
circumstances,  TF&L  is of  the  opinion  that a  U.S.  Individual  Stockholder
effectively reports the income in both jurisdictions pays income tax to the U.S.
Virgin Islands on the U.S.  Virgin Islands source income and is allowed a credit
for that tax against such person's U.S. federal income tax liability.

     Generally,  amounts received as dividends from corporations incorporated in
the U.S. Virgin Islands would constitute U.S. Virgin Islands source income. Such
dividends  would be subject to a Virgin  Islands  withholding  tax of 30% unless
such U.S. Individual Stockholder files a form claiming that such distribution is
income  "effectively  connected" with a U.S. Virgin Islands trade or business of
the stockholder.  Although the Company does not currently contemplate making any
distributions  with  respect to the Class A Common  Stock,  if a  dividend  were
distributed,  TF&L's  opinion  is that a U.S.  Individual  Stockholder  would be
required  to report  the income to both the IRS and the U.S.  Virgin  Islands as
described above.

     Any distributions in excess of current or accumulated  earnings and profits
of the Company  would not be taxable to a U.S.  Individual  Stockholders  to the
extent  such   distributions   did  not  exceed  the  adjusted   basis  of  such
stockholder's  Class A Common Stock,  but rather would reduce the adjusted basis
of such stock. To the extent that any distributions  exceeded the adjusted basis
of a U.S. Individual Stockholder's Class A Common Stock, such distribution would
give rise to gain from the sale or exchange of stock, the tax treatment of which
is described  below.  For  distributions  occurring  prior to January 1, 1999, a
withholding tax of 30% would be imposed unless such U.S. Individual  Stockholder
filed a form claiming that such distribution was income "effectively  connected"
with a U.S.  Virgin Islands trade or business.  Distributions  which occur on or
after  January 1, 1999 may not be subject to a  withholding  tax pursuant to the
issuance by the IRS of new regulations under Section 1441 of the Code.

     In the  opinion  of  TF&L,  so  long  as the  sale  or  exchange  by a U.S.
Individual Stockholder of Class A Common Stock does not constitute the sale of a
"U.S. Virgin Islands real property  interest," the income or loss from such sale
or exchange  generally will not be U.S.  Virgin Islands source income,  and such
individual  would not need to  report  such  income  or loss to the U.S.  Virgin
Islands.  Such  income or loss  would,  however,  be reported to the IRS on such
person's  U.S.  income tax return.  Shares  will not  constitute  a U.S.  Virgin
Islands real property  interest to the extent shares are "regularly  traded" (as
defined by applicable Treasury regulations) on an established stock exchange and
the selling  stockholder  holds 5% or less (after applying certain  constructive
ownership rules) of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the shorter of (i)
the period  during  which the  stockholder  held such  shares or (ii) the 5-year
period ending on the date of the  disposition  of such shares.  However,  to the
extent the Class A Common  Stock is either a U.S.  Virgin  Island real  property
interest or the  proceeds  from the sale or exchange are  effectively  connected
with a U.S. Virgin Islands trade or business of the stockholder,  TF&L is of the
opinion that the income would be U.S.  Virgin Islands  source  income,  and such
person  would be  required  to file a return in and pay  income  tax to the U.S.
Virgin Islands.  Such income would also be reported on that person's U.S. income
tax return.  Furthermore,  with  respect to sales or  exchanges  of U.S.  Virgin
Islands  real  property  interests,  a  purchaser  (or his agent) of such shares
generally  would be required to withhold a tax equal to 10% of the gross  amount
realized  and remit such amount to the U.S.  Virgin  Islands  Bureau of Internal
Revenue.  Redemptions  (or  repurchases)  of  a  U.S.  Individual  Stockholder's
interest  by the  Company  will be subject to a  withholding  tax of 30% if such
redemption  occurs prior to January 1, 1999.  Redemptions  occurring on or after
January 1, 1999 may not be subject to a withholding tax pursuant to the issuance
by the IRS of new regulations under Section 1441 of the Code.

     Taxation of U.S. Non-Individual Stockholders

     Generally,  amounts received as dividends from corporations incorporated in
the U.S. Virgin Islands by a United States non-Individual  Stockholder such as a
corporation,  trust or estate (collectively,  "U.S. Non-Individual Stockholder")
would  constitute U.S. Virgin Islands source income.  Such dividends  ordinarily
would be subject to a Virgin Islands  withholding tax on a gross basis (that is,
without allowance for deductions) at a 30% rate, unless such U.S. Non-Individual
Stockholder files a form claiming that such distribution is income  "effectively
connected"  with a U.S.  Virgin  Islands  trade or business of the  stockholder.
Dividends that are  effectively  connected with such a trade or business will be
subject to tax on a net basis  (that is,  after  allowance  for  deductions)  at
graduated rates, in the same manner as U.S. Virgin Islands Stockholders,  and so
are not  subject  to  withholding.  TF&L's  opinion is that such  income  would,
however, be reported on the person's U.S. income tax return

     Any distributions in excess of current or accumulated  earnings and profits
of the Company would not be taxable to a U.S. Non-Individual  Stockholder to the
extent such  distribution did not exceed the adjusted basis of the stockholder's
Class A Common Stock,  but rather would reduce the adjusted basis of such stock.
To the extent that any distributions exceed the adjusted basis of Class A Common
Stock in the hands of a U.S. Non-Individual Stockholder, such distribution would
give rise to gain from the sale or exchange of stock, the tax treatment of which
is described  below.  For  distributions  occurring  prior to January 1, 1999, a
withholding  tax of  30%  would  be  imposed  unless  such  U.S.  Non-Individual
Stockholder filed a form claiming that such distribution was income "effectively
connected"  with a U.S.  Virgin  Islands  trade or business of the  stockholder.
Distributions  which  occur on or after  January 1, 1999 may not be subject to a
withholding  tax  pursuant to the issuance by the IRS of new  regulations  under
Section 1441 of the Code.

     In the  opinion  of  TF&L,  so  long  as the  sale  or  exchange  by a U.S.
Non-Individual  Stockholder of Class A Common Stock does not constitute the sale
of a "U.S. Virgin Islands real property  interest," the income or loss from such
sale or exchange  generally will not be U.S.  Virgin Islands source income,  and
such stockholder would not need to report such income or loss to the U.S. Virgin
Islands.  Such  income or loss  would,  however,  be reported to the IRS on such
stockholder's  U.S. income tax return.  Shares will not constitute a U.S. Virgin
Islands real property  interest to the extent shares are "regularly  traded" (as
defined by applicable Treasury regulations) on an established stock exchange and
the selling  stockholder  holds 5% or less (after applying certain  constructive
ownership rules) of the shares of Class A Common Stock during the shorter of (i)
the period  during  which the  stockholder  held such  shares or (ii) the 5-year
period ending on the date of the  disposition  of such shares.  However,  to the
extent the Class A shares is either a U.S. Virgin Island real property  interest
or such proceeds of the sale or exchange are  effectively  connected with a U.S.
Virgin Islands trade or business of the stockholder, TF&L is of the opinion that
the income would be U.S. Virgin Islands income and such person would be required
to file a return in the U.S. Virgin Islands.  Such income would also be reported
on that person's U.S. income tax return.  Furthermore,  with respect to sales or
exchanges of U.S.  Virgin Islands real property  interests,  a purchaser (or his
agent) of such shares generally would be required to withhold a tax equal to 10%
of the gross amount  realized and remit such amount to the U.S.  Virgin  Islands
Bureau  of  Internal   Revenue.   Redemptions   (or   repurchases)   of  a  U.S.
Non-Individual  Stockholder's  interest  by the  Company  will be  subject  to a
withholding  tax of 30% if such  redemption  occurs  prior to  January  1, 1999.
Redemptions  occurring  on or after  January  1,  1999 may not be  subject  to a
withholding  tax  pursuant to the issuance by the IRS of new  regulations  under
Section 1441 of the Code.

     Amounts treated as "effectively connected" with a U.S. Virgin Islands trade
or  business of the  stockholder  which are  received  by a U.S.  Non-Individual
Stockholder  that is a corporation  may also be subject to an additional  branch
profits tax at a 30% rate.

Taxation of U.S. Virgin Island Stockholders

     As used herein, the term "U.S. Virgin Island Stockholder" means a holder of
Class A Common Stock who (for U.S.  Virgin Island income tax purposes) is (i) an
individual  who is a bona  fide  resident  of the U.S.  Virgin  Islands,  (ii) a
corporation  or other entity  organized in or under the laws of the U.S.  Virgin
Islands,  or (iii) a U.S.  Virgin  Islands estate or trust.  U.S.  Virgin Island
Stockholders  report and pay income tax on their  worldwide  incomes to the U.S.
Virgin  Islands.  Such  reporting  and payment  satisfies  their  United  States
reporting and payment obligations.

     Although   the  Company   does  not   currently   contemplate   making  any
distributions  with  respect to the Class A Common  Stock,  such a  distribution
would be taxable as a dividend to the extent such  distribution  was made out of
current or accumulated earnings and profits. Such a dividend would be taxable as
ordinary  income.  Corporate  stockholders  would be eligible for the  dividends
received deduction.

     To the extent that the  Company  were to make a  distribution  in excess of
current and  accumulated  earnings and  profits,  such a  distribution  would be
treated  first as a  tax-free  return  of  capital  to the U.S.  Virgin  Islands
Stockholder,  reducing  the tax  basis of such  stockholder's  shares of Class A
Common  Stock by the  amount  of the  distribution  (but not below  zero),  with
distributions in excess of such stockholder's tax basis taxable as capital gains
(provided that such shares have been held as a capital asset).

     Any  distributions  made  by the  Company  (to  the  extent  they  did  not
constitute a return of capital)  generally would be treated as investment income
for  purposes  of  computing  the  investment  income  limitation  on  deducting
investment  interest.  Gain arising from the disposition of Class A Common Stock
would be treated as investment  income unless the  stockholder  elects to reduce
the amount treated as investment income so as to have such  stockholder's  total
net capital  gain be  eligible  for varying  maximum  capital  gains rates (rate
dependent on the length of holding period).

     Any  distributions  made by the Company or gains  arising  from the sale or
exchange  of Class A Common  Stock  would not be  treated  as  passive  activity
income, and, as a result, a U.S. Virgin Islands Stockholder  generally would not
be able to apply any "passive losses" against such income or gain.

     Upon any sale or other  disposition of Class A Common Stock, a U.S.  Virgin
Islands  Stockholder  will  recognize  gain or loss in an  amount  equal  to the
difference  between  (i) the  amount  of cash and the fair  market  value of any
property  received  on such  sale or other  disposition  and  (ii) the  holder's
adjusted  basis in such shares of Class A Common  Stock for tax  purposes.  Such
gain or loss will be capital  gain or loss if the  shares  have been held by the
U.S. Virgin Islands  Stockholder as a capital asset,  and will be long-term gain
or loss if such shares have been held for more than one year.

     Backup Withholding

     If the Company  makes  distributions  which are treated as  dividends,  the
Company will report to its Virgin Island  Stockholders  and to the Virgin Island
Bureau of Internal  Revenue the amount of  dividends  paid during each  calendar
year, and the amount of tax withheld,  if any, with respect  thereto.  Under the
backup  withholding rules, a stockholder may be subject to backup withholding at
applicable rates with respect to dividends paid unless such stockholder (i) is a
corporation or comes within certain other exempt  categories and, when required,
demonstrates  this fact,  or (ii)  provides a  taxpayer  identification  number,
certifies  as to no loss of exemption  from backup  withholding,  and  otherwise
complies with applicable  requirements of the backup  withholding  rules. A U.S.
Virgin  Islands  Stockholder  that does not provide the Company with its correct
taxpayer  identification  number may also be subject to penalties imposed by the
Virgin Islands Bureau of Internal Revenue. Any amount paid as backup withholding
will be credited against the stockholder's income tax liability.

                         SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE


     Upon the completion of the offering, Lockhart will have 2,000,000 shares of
Class A Common  Stock  outstanding  (assuming  the Maximum  Offering is sold and
assuming  further  that,  prior to such time,  there is no conversion of Class B
Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock) and 8,589,658  shares of Class
B Common Stock outstanding  (assuming that no shares of Class B Common Stock are
converted  into Class A Common Stock prior to the offering and assuming  further
that 80,769  shares of Class B Common  Stock are  redeemed by the Company with a
portion of the proceeds from the offering).  There will be an additional 200,000
shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding if all of the Warrants are exercised.
All of the shares of Class A Common Stock sold in the offering or issuable  upon
exercise of the  Warrants  will be freely  transferable  and  tradeable  without
restriction or further  registration  under the Securities  Act,  except for any
shares purchased by an "affiliate," as defined below, of Lockhart, which will be
subject to the resale  limitations of Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act.
The shares of Class B Common Stock held by Lockhart's existing  stockholders are
"restricted"  securities  within the meaning of Rule 144 and may only be sold in
the public  market  pursuant to an effective  registration  statement  under the
Securities  Act  or  pursuant  to an  applicable  exemption  from  registration,
including Rule 144.

     In general,  under Rule 144 as  currently  in effect,  a person (or persons
whose  shares  are  required  to be  aggregated)  who has  been  deemed  to have
beneficially  owned  shares of an issuer  for at least  one year,  including  an
"affiliate,"  is entitled to sell,  within any three-month  period,  a number of
shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding  number of
shares of such class or the average  trading volume in composite  trading in all
national  securities  exchanges  during the four  calendar  weeks  preceding the
filing of the required notice of such sale, provided that such issuer has been a
reporting  Company for at least 90 days.  A person (or persons  whose shares are
required to be  aggregated)  who is not deemed an affiliate of an issuer and who
has  beneficially  owned  shares for at least two years is entitled to sell such
shares under Rule 144 without regard to the volume limitations  described above.
Affiliates  continue to be subject to such limitations.  As defined in Rule 144,
an "affiliate" of an issuer is a person that directly or indirectly, through one
or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control
with, such issuer.

     The  shares of the  Company's  Class B Common  Stock are  convertible  into
shares of Class A Common Stock and,  following  the  conversion  of such shares,
approximately 8,457,061 of the aggregate shares of Class A Common Stock owned by
the Class B Stockholders upon conversion of their shares of Class B Common Stock
would be  eligible  for sale  pursuant to the  provisions  of Rule 144 under the
Securities  Act. The Class B Stockholders  have agreed that,  subject to certain
limited exceptions, during the period beginning from the date of this Prospectus
and  continuing  to and  including  the date six  months  after the date of this
Prospectus,  they will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of
any securities of the Company which are  substantially  similar to the shares of
Class A Common Stock or which are  convertible or  exchangeable  into securities
which  are  substantially  similar  to the  shares of Class A Common  Stock.  In
addition,  the Company's  executive officers and directors as well as beneficial
owners of 5% or more of the Class B Common  Stock have agreed  that,  subject to
certain  limited  exceptions,  beginning  from the date of this  Prospectus  and
continuing  to and  including  the  date  two  years  after  the  date  of  this
Prospectus,  they will not offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise dispose of
any securities of the Company which are  substantially  similar to the shares of
Class A Common Stock or which are  convertible or  exchangeable  into securities
which are substantially similar to the shares of Class A Common Stock. Following
the  six-month  and two-year  periods,  no assurance can be given that a Class B
Stockholder  will not  decide,  based  upon  then  prevailing  market  and other
conditions,  to convert his or her Class B Common  Stock to Class A Common Stock
and to dispose of all or a portion of such stock  pursuant to the  provisions of
Rule 144 under the Securities Act, subject to any applicable volume  limitations
of Rule 144.

     Prior to the offering, there has been no established market for the Class A
Common  Stock,  and no  predictions  can be made about the effect,  if any, that
market  sales of  shares  of Class A Common  Stock or the  availability  of such
shares  for sale will have on the  market  price  prevailing  from time to time.
Nevertheless, sales of substantial amounts of Class A Common Stock in the public
market may have an adverse impact on the market for the shares of Class A Common
Stock offered hereby.

                 LOCKHART CARIBBEAN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                    PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                MINIMUM OFFERING
                                   (Unaudited)


     The  following  unaudited  pro  forma  condensed  financial  statements  of
Lockhart Caribbean Corporation reflect the following transactions:  (i) the sale
of 1,153,846  shares of Class A Common  Stock for $6.50 per share (the  "Minimum
Offering"),  (ii) the use of a portion of the net proceeds to repay $4.5 million
of  outstanding  debt,  and (iii) the use of a portion  of the net  proceeds  to
consummate  the probable  acquisition  of Premium  Finance  Company of the V.I.,
Inc., a company that finances  insurance premiums in the U.S. Virgin Islands and
other  Caribbean  islands.  The pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 1997
shows the effects of these  transactions  as if they had occurred at the date of
the balance sheet.  The unaudited pro forma  condensed  statements of operations
for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997,  and for the year ended  December
31,  1996,  show the effects of these  transactions  as if they had  occurred at
January 1, 1996,  and carried  forward  through  the end of the interim  period,
September 30, 1997. Additionally, the statement of operations for the year ended
December  31,  1996 shows the effect of the June 27, 1996  acquisition  of three
properties  (Fort Mylner  Shopping  Center,  Fort Mylner  Commercial  Center and
Orange Grove Shopping Center) as if the acquisitions  were made at the beginning
of the year.


     The  pro  forma  condensed  financial   statements  were  prepared  by  the
management of the Company.  These pro forma condensed  financial  statements may
not be  indicative  of the  results  that  actually  would have  occurred if the
transactions had been effected on the dates indicated or which may obtain in the
future.  The  pro  forma  condensed  financial  statements  should  be  read  in
conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial  statements  and notes thereto of
Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation  and the  financial  statements  and the  notes
thereto  of  Premium  Finance  Company  of the  Virgin  Islands,  Inc.  included

              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
                               September 30, 1997


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation  ("LCC") is organized as a United States Virgin
Islands  corporation  engaged in owning,  developing and leasing commercial real
estate.  LCC leases  developed  land,  and retail and office  space to customers
under  month-to-month  and  long-term  leases.  The  accompanying   consolidated
financial   statements   include  the  accounts  of  LCC  and  its  wholly-owned
subsidiaries H.E. Lockhart  Management,  Inc. ("HELM") and Lockhart Realty, Inc.
("LRI"). Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.


Basis of Presentation

The  consolidated  financial  statements of LCC as of September 30, 1997 and for
the nine months ended  September  30, 1996 and 1997 are  unaudited but have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring  adjustments)  considered  necessary for a fair presentation
have been  included.  The results of  operations  of any interim  period are not
necessarily  indicative  of the  results of  operations  for the full year.  The
accompanying  financial  information  should  be read in  conjunction  with  the
financial  statements,  including the notes thereto, for the year ended December
31, 1996 included elsewhere in this Prospectus.



Uses of Estimates

The  consolidated  financial  statements  have been prepared in conformity  with
generally  accepted  accounting  principles  which  requires  management to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and
liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the  financial  statements  and the  reported  amounts of revenues  and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents


Cash equivalents consist of short-term,  highly liquid investments with maturity
of three months or less when purchased.  Cash  equivalents  amounted to $124,973
and  $131,388  at  September  30,  1997 and 1996,  respectively,  and  consisted
primarily of money market instruments.


Construction-in-Progress

Construction-in-progress  consists  primarily  of  costs  (including  applicable
property  taxes and  interest)  incurred  relating  to  certain  renovation  and
rebuilding  projects.  These costs are included in operating  property  when the
projects are completed.

Operating Property

Operating property is stated on the basis of cost. LCC provides for depreciation
of  operating  property  using the  straight  line and  accelerated  methods for
financial  reporting purposes and the modified  accelerated cost recovery system
for income tax purposes over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to
31.5 years.  Expenditures  for  maintenance  and general  repairs are charged to
expenses as incurred,  whereas major improvements are classified as additions to
operating property.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) per share is computed  based upon the weighted  average number
of common shares outstanding during the periods.

                               September 30, 1997



Capitalized Interest


Interest  is  capitalized  as a  component  of the cost of  property,  plant and
equipment  constructed.  No  interest  was  capitalized  in  the  periods  ended
September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996.


Long-Lived Assets

In  March  1995,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,  "Accounting for
the  Impairment of Long-lived  Assets and for  Long-lived  Assets to be Disposed
Of". The Company  adopted SFAS No. 121 in 1995,  which had no material effect on
the  Company's  financial   statements.   Long-lived  assets  are  reviewed  for
impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that the
carrying  amount  may  not be  recoverable.  If the sum of the  expected  future
undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is
recognized for the  difference  between the fair market value and carrying value
of the asset.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred  financing costs  represents  costs incurred related to the issuance of
debt and are amortized over the term of the related debt.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following  methods and  assumptions  were used by LCC in estimating its fair
value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and cash  equivalents:  The carrying  amounts reported in the balance sheet
for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets' fair values.

Note receivable:  The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet approximates
fair value due to the underlying collateral on the note.

Notes payable:  The carrying amounts of the mortgage notes,  which bear interest
based on the financial  institution's prime rate,  approximate fair value due to
the periodic  repricing of the interest rates. The carrying amounts of the fixed
rate  mortgage  and  the  installment  note  approximate  fair  value  based  on
discounted cash flow analyses.

2. Note Receivable


In 1989, HELM sold a parcel of land and received a promissory note for $101,000,
secured by a first  priority  mortgage on the property.  No interest was accrued
for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996.  The note was settled on
March 14, 1997 for $169,000.  Accrued  interest as of March 14, 1997 amounted to
$73,259.


3. Notes Payable

Mortgage notes payable consisted of the following:

6. Transaction with Related Parties

The  amounts due from  shareholders  are  interest  bearing and have no specific
repayment terms.


A shareholder of LCC and member of the board of directors is also a partner of a
law firm which  renders  legal  services to LCC.  During  the nine months  ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996,  fees paid to the law firm amounted to $105,199 and
$104,327 respectively.


7. Subsequent Events


On October 3, 1997, the Company and the  shareholders of Premium Finance Company
of the V.I.  Inc.  ("PFC")  executed an  agreement  for the  purchase of all the
outstanding  common stock of PFC for $687,500.  PFC finances  insurance premiums
for individuals and businesses primarily in the U.S. Virgin Islands, the British
Virgin  Islands and  Anguilla.  The  acquisition  is dependent  upon  regulatory
approval.  In  addition,  the Company  has agreed to  guarantee a bank loan to a
wholly-owned subsidiary of PFC in the amount of $200,000.

One of the Company's major tenants advised the Company that it intends to vacate
its premises by December  1997. In October 1997, the Company signed a lease with
another major national retailer for the space to be vacated by December 1997.

                         Report of Independent Auditors



The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Lockhart Caribbean Corporation


We have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Lockhart
Caribbean Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related  consolidated  statements of operations,  shareholders'  equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended  December  31,  1996.  Our
audits also  included the  financial  statement  schedules  listed in the Index.
These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our  responsibility  is to express  an  opinion on these  financial
statements and schedules based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Lockhart Caribbean
Corporation and Subsidiaries at December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated
results of their  operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended  December 31,  1996,  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  Also, in our opinion,  the related financial  statement
schedules,  when considered in relation to the basic financial  statements taken
as a whole,  present fairly in all material  respects the  information set forth
therein.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                December 31, 1996


1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation  ("LCC") is organized as a United States Virgin
Islands  corporation  engaged in owning,  developing and leasing commercial real
estate.  LCC leases  developed  land,  and retail and office  space to customers
under  month-to-month  and  long-term  leases.  The  accompanying   consolidated
financial   statements   include  the  accounts  of  LCC  and  its  wholly-owned
subsidiaries H.E. Lockhart  Management,  Inc. ("HELM") and Lockhart Realty, Inc.
("LRI"). Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The  consolidated  financial  statements  have been prepared in conformity  with
generally  accepted  accounting  principles  which  requires  management to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and
liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the  financial  statements  and the  reported  amounts of revenues  and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents

Cash  equivalents  consist  of  short-term,  highly  liquid  investments  with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased.  Cash  equivalents  amounted to
$313,439 and $84,405 at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively,  and consisted
primarily of money market instruments.

Construction-in-Progress

Construction-in-progress  consists  primarily  of  costs  (including  applicable
property  taxes and  interest)  incurred  relating  to  certain  renovation  and
rebuilding  projects.  These costs are included in operating  property  when the
projects are completed.

Operating Property

Operating property is stated on the basis of cost. LCC provides for depreciation
of operating  property using the  straight-line  method for financial  reporting
purposes  and the  modified  accelerated  cost  recovery  system  for income tax
purposes over their  estimated  useful lives,  which range from 5 to 31.5 years.
Expenditures  for  maintenance  and  general  repairs  are charged to expense as
incurred,  whereas major  improvements  are classified as additions to operating
property.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) per share is computed  based upon the weighted  average number
of common shares outstanding during the periods.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Capitalized Interest

Interest  is  capitalized  as a  component  of the cost of  property,  plant and
equipment constructed. In 1995 interest amounting to $97,606 was capitalized. No
interest was capitalized in 1996 or 1994.

Long-Lived Assets

In  March  1995,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. The
Company  adopted  SFAS No.  121 in 1995,  which  had no  material  effect on the
Company's  financial  statements.  Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment
whenever  events or changes in  circumstances  indicate that the carrying amount
may not be  recoverable.  If the sum of the expected  future  undiscounted  cash
flows is less than the carrying  amount of the asset,  a loss is recognized  for
the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the asset.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred  financing costs  represent  costs incurred  related to the issuance of
debt and are amortized over the term of the related debt.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its
fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and cash  equivalents:  The carrying  amounts reported in the balance sheet
for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets' fair values.

Note receivable:  The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet approximates
fair value due to the underlying collateral on the note.

Notes payable:  The carrying amounts of the mortgage notes,  which bear interest
based on the financial  institution's prime rate,  approximate fair value due to
the periodic  repricing of the interest rates. The carrying amounts of the fixed
rate  mortgage  and  the  installment  note  approximate  fair  value  based  on
discounted cash flow analyses.


2. Note Receivable

In 1989, HELM sold a parcel of land and received a promissory note for $101,000,
secured by a first priority mortgage on the property. LCC has taken legal action
to foreclose on the mortgage and the  mortgagor was  defending  such action.  No
interest  was accrued  for the years ended  December  31,  1996,  1995 and 1994.
Accrued interest as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 amounted to $73,300.  The note
was settled on March 14, 1997 for $169,000.

The $14.6 million  mortgage note is payable in monthly  installments of $125,032
commencing in May 1997 after a six month  interest-only  payment period. A final
balloon  payment of $14.1  million is due when the note  matures in April  2000.
However, if there are no events of default, the financial institution has agreed
to convert the balance outstanding on April 1, 2000 to a term loan payable in 15
years and bearing interest at prime plus .5%.  Proceeds of the note were used to
retire  mortgage and  installment  notes issued for the  renovation of the Grand
Hotel and  acquisition  of Red Hook Plaza  Shopping  Center  and Drakes  Passage
properties  (which  had  outstanding  balances  of  $1,941,467,  $1,381,675  and
$391,642,  respectively, at December 31, 1995), and to retire an interim loan of
$10.4 million,  used to acquire the Orange Grove Shopping Center and Fort Mylner
properties, obtained during 1996.

3. Notes Payable (continued)

The $4.5 million  mortgage  note is payable in monthly  installments  of $38,537
commencing in May, 1997 after an initial  interest-only  payment period. A final
balloon payment of  approximately  $4.3 million is payable when the note matures
in April  2000.  However,  if there  are no  events of  default,  the  financial
institution has agreed to convert the balance  outstanding on April 1, 2000 to a
term loan  payable  in 15 years and  bearing  interest  at prime  plus .5%.  The
proceeds of the note were used to  liquidate  the  mortgage  note issued for the
renovation of Lockhart Gardens Shopping Center (which had an outstanding balance
of $3,735,552 at December 31, 1995).

The mortgage note with an  outstanding  balance of $813,394 at December 31, 1996
is payable in monthly installments of $6,306 plus interest through May, 1999 and
a final payment of $630,520 due in June, 1999.

Proceeds of the $4.7 million  mortgage note were used to finance the acquisition
of Red Hook Plaza Shopping Center.  The note is payable in monthly  installments
of $34,971  commencing in February  1996. A final  installment  comprised of the
principal sum then outstanding together with any unpaid interest is payable when
the note  matures in  January  2004.  The note is  secured  by a first  priority
mortgage on  properties  at the Red Hook Plaza  Shopping  Center,  a conditional
assignment of leases and rents, and a guarantee of LCC up to a maximum amount of
$750,000.

HELM  obtained  a $1  million  non-revolving  line of  credit  from a  financial
institution.  $300,000  has been drawn on the line of credit as of December  31,
1996.  The  balance  outstanding  under the line of credit is due and payable in
April  2000.  However,  if  there  are  no  events  of  default,  the  financial
institution has agreed to convert the balance  outstanding on April 1, 2000 to a
term loan payable in 15 years and bearing  interest at prime plus .5%.  Interest
is accrued on the unpaid balance at .5% above the  institution's  prime rate and
is payable monthly.

The  financial  institution  granted a moratorium  on principal  payments of the
three  mortgage  notes due to the effects of Hurricane  Marilyn.  The moratorium
period was from  November 1995 to July 1996 for the $3.7 million  mortgage,  and
from  November  1995 to  January  1996 for the  $1.9  million  mortgage  and the
$883,000  mortgage.  The principal  payments  during the moratorium  period were
added to the balloon payments due when the notes were scheduled to mature.

Installment Note

In 1990,  HELM  purchased a lease on its  Drake's  Passage  property  through an
installment  note  payable.  The note  was  scheduled  to  mature  in 1997.  The
acquisition  of the lease was  recorded  as a  capitalized  asset at the present
value of the  acquisition  cost.  The  capitalized  asset and discount are being
amortized over the seven year term of the installment note.

At December 31, 1995, the balance of the  installment  note was $391,642 (net of
unamortized  discount of  $133,351).  The note was  liquidated  in 1996 with the
proceeds of the $14.6 million mortgage note.

Capital Lease Obligations

In August 1992,  HELM leased a vehicle for $60,000  under a capital  lease which

and/or a  percentage  of gross  sales.  Included in rental  income for the years
ended  December 31,  1996,  1995 and 1994 are  $77,000,  $100,000 and  $221,000,
respectively, of rent attributable to a percentage of tenants' gross sales.

lease agreements were as follows:

             1997                                      $ 4,484,000

Subsequent Events


On October 3, 1997, the Company executed a Stock Purchase  Agreement to purchase
all the  outstanding  common stock of Premium  Finance Company of the V.I., Inc.
("PFC") for  $687,500.  PFC  finances  insurance  premiums  for  individual  and
businesses primarily in the U. S. Virgin Islands, the British Virgin Islands and
Anguilla.  The acquisition is dependent upon receiving regulatory  approval.  In
addition,  the  Company has agreed to  guarantee  a bank loan to a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of PFC amounting to $200,000.


On July 5, 1997 the shareholders of The Lockhart Companies  Incorporated ("LCI")
voted to restructure and  recapitalize  the Company and to offer common stock to
the public in an initial  public  offering to be registered  with the Securities
and   Exchange   Commission.   In   connection   with  the   restructuring   and
recapitalization, LCI changed its name to Lockhart Caribbean Corporation ("LCC")
on August 22, 1997. On the same date, the  shareholders of LCI exchanged each of
their shares for 9.7 shares of Class B common stock of LCC. The  transaction has
been  accounted  for  in  a  manner  similar  to  a  pooling-of-interests   and,
accordingly, the financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31,
1996, 1995 and 1994 have been restated to give  retroactive  recognition to this
transaction.

On August 1, 1997,  the  Company  obtained an  additional  line of credit from a
financial  institution  in the amount of  $400,000.  Advances  under the line of
credit will bear  interest at the  institutions  prime rate.  The line of credit
expires on July 31, 1998.


One of the Company's major tenants advised the Company that it intends to vacate
the premises in October 1997. The tenant's lease does not expire until 2001, and
it is obligated  to make base rental  payments  until 2001.  The Company and the
tenant are negotiating an amicable  settlement.  The tenants annual base rent is
approximately  $240,000  per year.  On October  22,  1997,  HELM  signed a lease
agreement with a suitable replacement tenant.

                         Report of Independent Auditors





The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Lockhart Caribbean Corporation

We  have  audited  the  accompanying   balance  sheets  of  Lockhart   Caribbean
Corporation  (Parent  Company Only) (the  "Company") as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, and the related  statements of operations,  shareholders'  equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended  December 31, 1996.  These
financial  statements are the  responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements,  the accompanying  financial
statements  include only the accounts of the parent company and,  therefore,  do
not  represent  the primary  entity.  The primary  financial  statements  of the
Company,   which  include  the  consolidated  balance  sheet,  and  the  related
consolidated  statements of operations,  shareholders' equity, and cash flows of
the Company and H.E.  Lockhart  Management,  Inc.  ("HELM") and Lockhart Realty,
Inc., ("LRI") its wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  have been issued under a separate
report. The Company accounts for its investment in HELM and LRI under the equity
method in the accompanying financial statements.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects,  the financial position of Lockhart Caribbean Corporation
(Parent  Company  Only) at December  31,  1996 and 1995,  and the results of its
operations  and its cash flows for each of the three  years in the period  ended
December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                                December 31, 1996

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation  ("LCC") is organized as a United States Virgin

to customers under  month-to-month and long-term leases through its wholly-owned
subsidiaries H.E. Lockhart  Management,  Inc. ("HELM") and Lockhart Realty, Inc.
("LRI").

Use of Estimates

The  financial  statements  have been  prepared  in  conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles which requires management to make estimates and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments in Subsidiaries

The  Company  owns 100% of the  shares of H.E.  Lockhart  Management,  Inc.  and
Lockhart Realty,  Inc. The Company accounts for its investments under the equity
method  in  the  accompanying   financial   statements.   Summarized   financial
information  of HELM and LRI as of December  31, 1996 and 1995 and for the three

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Cash Equivalents

Cash  equivalents  consist  of  short-term,  highly  liquid  investments  with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased.

Land 

Land stated on the basis of cost.

Construction-in-Progress

Construction-in-progress  consists  primarily  of  costs  (including  applicable
property  taxes and  interest)  incurred  relating  to  certain  renovation  and
rebuilding  projects.  These costs are included in operating  property  when the
projects are completed.

Long-Lived Assets

In  March  1995,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 121,  "Accounting for
the  Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed
Of." The Company  adopted SFAS No. 121 in 1995,  which had no material effect on
the  Company's  financial   statements.   Long-lived  assets  are  reviewed  for
impairment  whenever  events  or  changes  in  circumstances  indicate  that the
carrying  amount  may  not be  recoverable.  If the sum of the  expected  future
undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is
recognized for the  difference  between the fair value and carrying value of the
asset.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its
fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and cash  equivalents:  The carrying  amounts reported in the balance sheet
for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets' fair values.

2.    Income Taxes

At  December  31,  1996  the  Company  has  operating  loss   carryforwards   of
approximately  $1,029,000 and $346,000 available to offset future taxable income
through the years 2011 and 2010, respectively.

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


3.    Transactions with Related Parties

The  amounts  due from  shareholders  bear  interest  at 9% and have no specific
repayment terms.

A  shareholder  of the  Company and member of the board of  directors  is also a
partner of a law firm which  renders legal  services to the Company.  During the
years ended December 31, 1996,  1995 and 1994 fees paid to the law firm amounted
to approximately $20,400, $22,000 and $24,000, respectively.

LCC  has  guaranteed  bank   borrowings  by  HELM  amounting  to   approximately
$20,150,000 at December 31, 1996.

As part of HELM's loan  agreement  with a financial  institution,  the dividends
from HELM to LCC are  limited  to a maximum of  $500,000  per year  without  the
consent of the financial institution.

4.    Subsequent Events

On October 3, 1997 the Company  executed a Stock Purchase  Agreement to purchase
all the  outstanding  common stock of Premium  Finance Company of the V.I., Inc.
("PFC") for  $687,500.  PFC  finances  insurance  premiums  for  individual  and
businesses  primarily in the U.S. Virgin Islands, the British Virgin Islands and
Anguilla.  The acquisition is dependent upon receiving  regulatory  approval and
approval of PFC's shareholders. In addition, the Company has agreed to guarantee
a bank loan to a wholly-owned subsidiary of PFC amounting to $200,000.

On July 5, 1997 the shareholders of The Lockhart Companies  Incorporated ("LCI")
voted to restructure and  recapitalize  the Company and to offer common stock to
the public in an initial  public  offering to be registered  with the Securities
and   Exchange   Commission.   In   connection   with  the   restructuring   and
recapitalization,  LCI was  reincorporated  as  Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation
("LCC") on August 22, 1997 as a U.S.  Virgin  Islands  corporation.  On the same
date, the  shareholders  of LCI exchanged each of their shares for 9.7 shares of
Class B Common Stock of LCC. The  transaction has been accounted for in a manner
similar to a pooling-of-interests and, accordingly,  the financial statements as
of and for the years ended  December 31, 1996,  1995 and 1994 have been restated
to give retroactive recognition to the transaction.

On August 1, 1997, LCC obtained a line of credit from a financial institution in
the amount of $400,000.  Advances under the line of credit will bear interest at
the institution's prime rate. The line of credit expires on July 31, 1998.

One of HELM's major tenants  advised HELM that it intends to vacate the premises
in October  1997.  The  tenant's  lease does not expire  until  2001,  and it is
obligated to make base rental  payments  until 2001.  The Company and the tenant
are  negotiating  an  amicable  settlement  and  seeking a suitable  replacement
tenant.  The tenant's  annual base rent is  approximately  $240,000 per year. On
October 22,  1997,  HELM signed a lease  agreement  with a suitable  replacement
tenant.

St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands



I have audited the accompanying  balance sheet of Premium Finance Company of the
V.I., Inc. as of December 31, 1996,  1995 and 1994 and the related  statement of
income and deficit and cash flows for the twelve months ended  December 31, 1996
and  1995  and the  seven  months  ended  December  31,  1994.  These  financial
statements are the responsibility of the company's management. My responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on the audit.


I conducted the audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing  standards.
These standards  require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements  presentation.  An audit
also includes  assessing the principles used and  significant  estimates made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
I believe that the audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.


In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material  respects,  the financial  position of Premium  Finance  Company of the
V.I.,  Inc.  as of  December  31,  1996,  1995 and 1994 and the  results  of its
operations  and its cash flows for the twelve months ended December 31, 1996 and
1995 and the seven months ended  December 31, 1994 in conformity  with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                Betterments and renewals are capitalized.  When property is sold
                or  otherwise   disposed  of,  the  asset  account  and  related
                depreciation  are  reduced  and any gain or loss is  included in
                operations.  Depreciation  expense for the years ended  December
                31,  1996,  1995  and  1994  was  $8,078,  $12,455  and  $4,505,

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                DECEMBER 31, 1996

           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT'D)
           ---------------------------------------------------

           b)   Organization Costs
                ------------------
                Organization  costs  represent  expenses   associated  with  the
                incorporation  and setting up of the  Corporation.  Organization
                costs are  amortized  over five years  using the  straight  line
                method.

           c)   Revenues and Expenses Recognition
                ---------------------------------
                Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses when incurred.

                Interest income from finance receivables is recognized using the
                rule of 78s method, which approximates the interest method.

           d)   Use of Estimates
                ----------------
                The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with
                generally accepted accounting  principles requires management to
                make estimates and assumptions  that affect the reported amounts
                of assets and  liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets
                and liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and the
                reported  amounts of revenues and expenses  during the reporting
                period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

           e)   Compensated Absences
                --------------------
                Employees  of the company are entitled to paid  vacations,  sick
                days and personal  days off,  depending on the length of service
                and other factors. Compensated absences at December 31, 1996 was
                $4,917.

           f)   Finance Receivables
                -------------------

                Finance  receivables  that management has the intent and ability
                to hold for the foreseeable  future or until maturity or pay off
                are  reported at their  outstanding  unpaid  principal  balances
                reduced by any charge off and not of any unearned interest.

                Credit  losses are  charged to income  and  decrease  to finance
                receivables. The company charges off credit losses when financed
                receivables are in excess of 120 days past due.

                No provision for credit  losses were  presented in the financial
                statement.

                Finance  receivables  as of December  31, 1996  consisted of the
                following:

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
         ------------------------------------

      Statement of Financial Accounting No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of
      Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about
      financial  instruments,  whether or not  recognized  in the  statement  of
      financial  condition.   In  cases  where  quoted  market  prices  are  not
      available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other
      valuation techniques.  Those techniques are significantly  affected by the
      assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash
      flows.  In that  regard,  the  derived  fair  value  estimates  cannot  be
      substantiated  by  comparison to  independent  markets and, in many cases,
      could  not  be  realized  in  immediate  settlement  of  the  instruments.
      Statement  No.  107  excludes  certain   financial   instruments  and  all
      nonfinancial  instruments from its disclosure  requirements.  Accordingly,
      the aggregate fair value amounts do not represent the underlying  value of
      the company.

      The estimated  fair value of the company's  financial  instruments  are as
      follows:

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Lockhart Caribbean Corporation

We have audited the accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses (the

1995,  and  1994.  The  Statements  are  the  responsibility  of the  Property's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this Statement based
on our audit.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable   assurance  about  whether  the  Statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the Statements.  An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,  as
well as  evaluating  the overall  Statement  presentation.  We believe  that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying  Statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with the
rules and  regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission (for inclusion
in a  Registration  Statement  on Form S-11 of Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation,
previously known as The Lockhart Companies  Incorporated) as described in Note 2
to the  Statements  and is not  intended  to be a complete  presentation  of the
revenues and expenses of Red Hook Plaza, Inc.

In our opinion, the Statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects,  the revenues and certain  expenses of Red Hook Plaza,  Inc.,  for the
years ended  December  31,  1996,  1995 and 1994 in  conformity  with  generally

                  Years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994




1. Organization

Red Hook Plaza,  Inc. (the "Plaza"),  consists of approximately  36,000 leasable
square feet located in the eastern side of St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands.  Red
Hook Plaza, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of H. E. Lockhart Management, Inc.
The Plaza is located in two  buildings.  The first  building has both retail and
office space; the second building is used as a restaurant.


2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The  accompanying  statements  of revenues and certain  expenses  related to the

have been prepared for the purposes of complying with the rules and  regulations
of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  (for  inclusion in a  registration
Statement on Form S-11 of Lockhart  Caribbean  Corporation,  previously known as
The  Lockhart  Companies  Incorporated).  Expenses  that  are  dependent  on the
particular  Plaza owner and the carrying  value of the Plaza have been  excluded
from the accompanying  Statements.  The excluded  expenses consist  primarily of
depreciation, amortization, mortgage interest and professional fees not directly
related to the future  operations of the Plaza.  Accordingly,  the statements of
revenues and certain expenses are not intended to be a complete  presentation of
the revenues and expenses of the Plaza.

Revenue Recognition

The Plaza is leased to tenants  under lease terms that are greater than one year
and are accounted for as operating  leases.  Expenditures  that are  recoverable
from  tenants  are  recognized  as income in the  period the  related  costs are
accrued.

Ordinary  repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.  Major  replacements
and betterments are capitalized.

Advertising Expense

The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred.

                         LOCKHART CARIBBEAN CORPORATION
                           INSTRUCTIONS TO PURCHASERS


Lockhart Caribbean Corporation (the "Company") is offering up to 2,000,000 Units
on a best efforts basis. No Units will be sold until  subscriptions for at least
1,153,846  Units are received.  The minimum  purchase is 100 Units.  The initial
public  offering  price is $6.50 per Unit.  Each Unit  consists  of one share of
Class A Common  Stock and one  Warrant.  Shares of Class A Common  Stock and the
Warrants may be transferred  separately  after their  issuance.  Each Warrant is
exercisable  for a period of five years beginning one year from the date of this
Prospectus and entitles the holder to purchase one-tenth of one share of Class A
Common Stock for $9.75 per share.

The Company has filed a Registration  Statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission  with respect to the Units.  The  Registration  Statement  includes a
Prospectus that describes the Company and the terms of this offering. Offers and
sales of the Units in this offering can only be made by means of the Prospectus.
Subscribers  should  carefully read the Prospectus prior to making an investment
decision and should pay  particular  attention to the  considerations  discussed
under "Risk Factors" in the Prospectus.

ACS Financial and Securities  Services has agreed to collect  subscriptions  and
forward them to the Company for  processing.  All  subscription  funds for Units
will be deposited in an interest-bearing escrow account with The Chase Manhattan
Bank, until subscriptions for 1,153,846 Units are received.

Subscription Agreement Form

     All purchasers of Units must fill out AND SIGN the  Subscription  Agreement
attached to the  Prospectus  or available to print from the web site.  We cannot
process  your  payment  nor can we issue your Class A Common  Stock and  related
Warrant  certificates  unless and until we  receive  this  completed  and signed
Subscription  Agreement.  If you do not have a printer  or cannot  download  the
Subscription  Agreement from our web site, you can receive a printed copy of the
Prospectus  by calling  the Company at  (340)776-1900,  and a  Prospectus  and a
Subscription  Agreement  will be sent to  you.  If you  have a hard  copy of the
Prospectus,  use the  Subscription  Agreement form attached as Appendix A to the
Prospectus.  Once the payment and signature are  received,  your stock  purchase
will be processed promptly.

Do You Reside in a Jurisdiction Where the Company is Authorized to Make a Public
Offering of the Units?

     At the present  time,  the Company is authorized to sell Units to residents
of the following jurisdictions:  California,  Colorado,  Connecticut,  Delaware,
Georgia,  Hawaii,  Indiana,  Nevada,  New Mexico,  New York, Ohio, Rhode Island,

Alabama,  Alaska, Arizona,  Arkansas,  Florida,  Idaho, Illinois,  Iowa, Kansas,

Mississippi,  Missouri,  Montana,  Nebraska,  New Hampshire,  New Jersey,  North

that would be needed to meet the  public  offering  requirements  of the laws of
these  jurisdictions.  However,  you are still  welcome  to browse  through  our
Prospectus and to let us know if you might be interested in purchasing Units. If
there is sufficient  interest  from  potential  investors in your state,  we may
decide to go through the process  necessary  for us to be able to offer Units to
you. In addition,  the Company reserves the right to offer and sell the Units on
a limited  basis in one or more states or foreign  countries  where an exemption
from registration in such state or foreign country is available.

                                                                          [Logo]

President's Welcome

Dear Visitor:

On  behalf  of  the  entire  LCC  team,  I  welcome  you to  Lockhart  Caribbean
Corporation's Electronic Public Offering (EPO) website. Here, investors may join
LCC as it begins its second century of progress and development in the Caribbean
region.  You may view and download  LCC's  Prospectus  and receive  instructions
about how to purchase LCC units by completing LCC's Subscription Agreement.

Lockhart is the largest owner of shopping  centers in the U.S.  Virgin  Islands.
LCC currently owns and operates seven shopping centers,  is actively planning or
developing  seven more  projects,  has  leased an  aggregate  of seven  acres of
undeveloped  commercial property for development by others (including tenants of
a commercial  business park) under long-term ground leases, and has an inventory
of approximately 415 acres of undeveloped land zoned for residential development
of varying densities.

Building   upon  this  solid   foundation,   Lockhart   has   embarked   upon  a
diversification   into  the  financial  services  industry.   Lockhart's  senior
management  recognized  that both the resident and tourist markets for financial
services  are  underserved.  To fill this  need,  LCC plans to  acquire  Premium
Finance  Company of the V.I.,  Inc.  and intends to grow its business to provide
select financial services throughout the Caribbean.

An  investment  in LCC is not without  risks.  You should  carefully  review the
section  captioned  "Risk  Factors",  which begins on page 12 of the Prospectus.
These risks include:

    o        Historical consolidated net losses.
    o        Concentration of properties in the U.S. Virgin Islands.
    o        No limit on indebtedness in Lockhart organizational documents.
    o        Real estate  investment and property  management risks, such as the
             need to renew leases or relet space upon lease expiration.
    o        Certain losses may exceed insurance coverage.
    o        There is currently no public market for the Class A Common Stock.


Lockhart's  EPO is yet  another  example  of its  commitment  to  remain  at the
vanguard of business  and finance.  Capital  raised from its  Electronic  Public
Offering will be used to fund Lockhart's pending financial services  acquisition
and reduce the Company's debt.

Please follow the step-by-step  instructions provided to review LCC's Prospectus
and  learn  how to make an  investment  in what we  believe  is one of the  most
exciting companies in the Caribbean.

Sincerely,
John P. deJongh, Jr.
President
Lockhart Caribbean Corporation
